Needless to say, i did NOT pay them and took my car directly to Lexus right after i got it back. I should have my car back later today looking perfect.

thx for all the help guys! and i'll post up pics after i get her back!

Yeah, get that checked out. I had springs put on and the same thing happened to me. Turned out the dealer sent me the wrong spec springs. Took 2 weeks for my new setup to get here. I rode around jacked up in the front that long. Looking crazy.

Default DF or NF 210's

I have been looking around and think 20" may be too large for this car. I know that open spoke wheels don't look as large as closed wheel patterns.

I ordered the NF210's - because I heard the Df210's are too harsh and low for the stock suspension.

Do you think that the DPE RO8 Variant Brushed will look better in 19" with the NF 210 drop or 20" DPE's?

I know the wheel height can be adjusted by getting 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 instead of the usual 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. This will give me over .5" more height and fill out the gap better.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
