Default Wheel/Coilover Fitment

Greeting all, finally after years of work on my UCF10 and finishing the project and taking trophies home, I decided to move on to something newer and better! Finally got myself SC430 and reado to start work. Only things I kept were the custom built wheels to spec for my LS400. They are Bazreias and new measurements are 10.5 225/35/19 and 11.5 245/35/19. And the fitment is great, now what I need after doing plenty of research on not being able to find pics and info on coilover lowering rates to find out the coilover system that will allow me to drop the sidewall of the tire to the fenders just like my LS... pics of my new car and old car for reference. Thanks for all the help!!!

Miguel

The Megans will drop it to the ground.

I have to lift mine with 19's...and it's got another 2-3" let to go lower.

Ok good to know, are you on Megan LPs or EZs? My LS was on EZs and the ride was ok... just want your input in ride quality and model (LPs/EZs) aswell now that I know they will allow me drop a good amount. Thanks!!

EZ's. They are a bit soft/bouncy but not bad at all.

I have EZ's and I would'nt say they were soft and bouncy, but then I can only compare with OEM.

Now running on air, but still using the EZ's and they are doing fine. Had them three and half years.

Cheers
Steve
