Default Maxpeedingrods coil overs

Anyone have any experience with MaxpeedingRods.com. They have coil overs for the LS460 for $410. All 4.

Then I would avoid buying the ones you linked since they will fail almost immediately and ride horribly compared to stock, suspension for these cars is an expensive project from the perspective of parts and labor cost. Even the stock system is not cheap to replace, nearly the same cost as the ones I linked if you buy the Lexus ones. Are you attempting to remove an air suspension system that has stopped working?

Your car is very low mile and looks extremely clean, don't ruin it with substandard parts......it would make me and others sad lol!

Yes car has low miles but it’s still 14 years old. I have two struts that are leaking fluid right now. So I want to replace all of them. Looks like I will be going with OEM style struts and doing the work myself. Thanks for the input. Does anyone know what the factory spring rate is for this car?

No idea but they are quite soft, this site has mostly everything you would need for your car at decent prices https://www.lexuspartsnow.com/

There are other options but shipping sometimes take a month or so, others here have the info for those places. I do not remember them off the top of my head sorry
