Nice ride bro! I like the wheels and everything you've done so far!! Although the side visors and rear roof lip are small upgrades, it really makes the LS430 stand out that much more!!! I'm sure you're turning heads on these Nevada highways!!!!

i know but thats as far as my megans go on the rear theyre threaded all the way down. unless theres another way of adjusting them from the spring perch? but as it is i scrape pretty good on some speed bumps.

how's the rides? I'm trying to get a comparison between couples of coilovers and espcially Tom's coilovers anyones know or have them on their ride. I would like to know if it's worth invest in them.

thanks,

I have megans on my 430 also i had the same issue if the bottom part of the shock is threaded all the way down and bottomed out like mine was you can adjust it at the top it will shorten your strut stroke giving you some more drop
