For the guys on here with the lowered cars and bigger wheels, how is the ride? Part of what I love about my Lex is the smooth ride, like being on a cloud. Everyone tells me not to put wheels or lower it because it will take that away greatly.

Sorry, I know this isn't a picture post. But alot of the pictures fall into the category I'm asking about.

The ride is not all that bad. Even though I scrape everywhere I go i Personally love just looking at my car slammed with some badass wheels. Just knowing my car is hard as hell is worth the sacrafice of my ride quality

If you on air and don't go crazy on offset with good tire then ride almost like stock except bit more road noise. For example, when I got 19' with 17+ and 12 + offset..........ride horrible (stick out too much):

Now with 20', unknown offset but wider.......ride very smooth

Default My 2004 Lexus LS 430 on 22"

Well, i got rid of my 98 Lexus GS 300 and got me a new toy. I got it stocked, so I'm starting to do work on it little by little. Majority of people in here got their LS 430 riding on 20" rims and dropped. When i asked for help in here on what size rims i should put on my LS 430, alot of people didn't want me to do 22" but I had to do it, just to be different. Here are a few pics, let me knwo what you guys think.
