SoFreshSoClean Posted August 15, 2003 Posted August 15, 2003 Whats up all. Im thinkin bout droppin my 95 es300 with Eibach Springs. The ones im gettin are supposed to gimme a 1 inch drop in both the front and back. Is there anything else i need to consider before doing this so i wont hurt the car in anyway? Thanks all!!
SpeedRacer959 Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 Think 4 wheel alignment after you drop it. Should run you about $80 at a Non-Lexus service center...God knows how much at lexus. <_<
steviej Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 what struts are you gonna pair up with the springs, KYB? sj
SKperformance Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 the one inch drop does not need a alignment but you could get one if it already needs it or you have different rims the one inch changes very little except the car is a little easier to control and the suspension is now slightly stiffer if you have a 95 then get new springs as well either the kyb ones for a smooth ride or the tokico ones for more harder driving as 9 years is a long time for stock suspensioni why put them together to just take em apart a year later
SKperformance Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 oh yah if you do get an alignment wait atleast 2 months as the suspension will settle an go lower as after you change them you will see no difference in ride height it will only dirve harder
SoFreshSoClean Posted August 17, 2003 Author Posted August 17, 2003 Thanks for the posts everyone. This will surely help me in my decision of lowering or not. I did get new rims. They're 16" by like 7"?? American Racing wheels with Bridgestone Potenza's...i forget the dimensions but the one inch drop shouldn't be too much, 2 inches and i would start to question. Thanks guys
SpeedRacer959 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 post some pics when you get it done...curious to see the drop w/ the 16" rims. :) -Jimi
