it rides pretty nicely, little bouncy over bad/rough roads but not bad at all.

im running a full LSportline kit, which uses LSportline branded (Eibach) springs and custom made Bilstein shocks with 4pt ride height adjustability on both front and rear.

front is all the way down (but still needs to settle in some more) and rear is 2nd from the top.

Nice PD, are you gonna upgrade to 19's anytime soon with some aggressive offsets? That car would look sick with a nice lip kit and aggressive rims slammed!!!!!!! But looks nice dude! Sometimes i wish i had a 98 + instead of my first Gen LS... But im starting to love the style of the Gen 1. Lexus Flagship baby keepin it real!

20's are a possibility but not anytime soon, have some other goodies that take priority.

and id only do that if i decide to actually sell my HRE's, which is pretty hard to do since they seem to suit the car so damn well

Looks great Pure - Maybe you are missing your calling as a photographer - the mountain shot backgrounds are wicked

When I lowered mine to the bottom perch, it did not require any change in the alignment

That car is SWEET. I like the wheels on it ALOT, and the L-sportline looked really good. I think you're on the right track.
