Hope I'm not hijacking the thread...sorry!

Was about to purchase some 20" Vossen wheels and currently own an 07 450h. What's the recommended springs to use for my scenario? NF210's or DF210's? Keeping in mind that I too want to maintain the ride quality, but would like a similar stance to xDe3JaYx vehicle above - which looks hella good!

Thanks!

I think Mike who also owns a 450h on Vossen has DF210's on his car would be able to help you out. Send him an email. Mike@vossenwheels.com He's on CL as well.

Blueprint (aka Mike@Vossen) is lowered on DF210s, and I'm lowered on NF210s; both of us have GS450h. Search for pics in this forum for our rides, and you can decide what ride height is the one you want.

So if you want to maintain stock ride quality, then NF210 is the way to go. If you want to go lower, then DF210 would be the selection, but you need to give up some ride quality if you want better stance.

Thanks Stormforge. Ride quality is important to me, especially being that this is a daily commuter, so think I'm going to go with the NF210's. Not too aggressive of a drop, but it does reduce that fender gap.

Do we have a vendor in the marketplace that is currently selling these for the GSh that is willing to ship to Canada at a decent price? Rather keep it in the CL family as opposed to going the fleabay route...

Yes, there are multiple CL vendors that can sell to you the NF210 springs. I personally bought mine from Nigel-JDMParts. You'll need to PM them and see what kind of pricing they have. Alternatively you can check the for sale forum for 3GS, some of our members sell their springs there and you might be able to pick up a set at a good price.

BTW, where in Canada are you located?

Thanks Stormforge - I'll check Nigel and the other forums.

I'm in Toronto. So stoked to put these wheels that I have on the vehicle!!

Spring savers to level out? Do you mean RCA's to lower the front end?

I'm interested in this as well. Brand, size and where these were purchased at.

I bought it for the gs300, 350, 430, and 460. I thought they were all the same. Not sure of the exact drop, probably what was listed on the website except it dropped the rear a little more.
