LS460 Suspension, Base Model, 2008
I have a 2008 LS460, standard wheelbase (26K miles) without the sport suspension package. I love the car but the suspension could use some enhancements. The ride is great on smooth roads - steady and quiet; however, accelerating from a stop or at high speed on unsmooth surfaces, the LS is just not smooth at all – feels like being on a boat diving left-right. I also own an SC430 – a stark contrast from the LS460 – the suspension is steady & smooth compensating for the uneven surface.
Would appreciate all suggestions on what I can do to make the LS460 ride sportier without hindering the quietness of the car, or changing out the tires (stock 18 inch wheels). I would consider new suspsension/shocks.
Thank you!

From what I've read so far, the Tanabe would lower the LS by about 1 inch - does that sound right?
