Default What Suspension drops the is350 lowest?

Waddup CL,

Im currently looking for an is350 around my area (La,Ca)
Should be getting myself a nice bday present this year (Is350)
However i wanna start getting all my stuff ready that way as soon as i get my car ill have it dropped, rims, and maybe audio by week 1 or 2. Talk about being committed right?
Any info on what suspension allows u to drop the is350 the lowest and quality of the ride will be greatly appreciated
Heres what im currently looking up to...
Shout out to "Bully Man" frm Hawaaii owning this beauty is250.
Anyone know if hes a member on here?

That's air runner. Pretty expensive but worth it on the looks side. There are a lot of other members on coils who are pretty low too. Dangy I think is on coils and rides super low.

i don't think you can go that low and have a nice ride quality. if you wanna go real low, i think you should aim for a stiffer ride. i'm on Tein SS right now, and if i had to do it again, i'll go with the highest spring rate

Springs, by height: #1 Road Magnets 2"/2", #2 Tein S 1.6"/1", #3 H&R 1.4"/1.4"

Coils: BC is most popular. If you cant get your fix off of coils, then start asking about bags.

I mean ive owned a few hondas that were dropped real low and SOME bouncing i dont mind. Its the bouncing that u can tell that i dont like. Like say for example ur heading about 30mph n hit a lil bump n ur car dramatically jumps up n down what i dont want.
Imma try looking on here to see how the car looks lowest on coilovers
