I went with the 20's, I didn't lower my car at all and had no adverse effects (e.g. scrubbing, wobbling, or ruff ride). However, there is more road noice, and it will decrease your gas milage. All I would say is make sure you have a good alarm system with an area and motion alarm...so you won't be sitting on bricks.

Fam, We I first purchased my 98 GS400, I inquired to the group whether or not to get 20's or 18's. I haven't posted in awhile, but since then I put some 20's on my ride. However, like the Seahawks got robbed in the Superbowl, I was robbed that night also. My question is, is there a motion detection add-on for the factory alarm, or should I get an after market system. If the best route is the after market, which is best? I have looked at the latest "Viper" and it goes for about 500 bucks. Please send me your recommendations. Thanks

NEO, It is this thing called "cash up front", I had to finance through a dealer. Believe me if I had the cash flow to buy out right, I probably would have went for it. One quick you note I am sure you can atest to this; getting the vin number of the vehicle and contacting the nearest Lexus Dealership to retrieve the service records. That way you could easily determine wheter the previous owner took care of the vehicle. Fortunate for me, the previous owner of my car maintained all services that were needed (to include new timing belt at 60k), except the 90k service. I have an appointment on the 23rd of Nov to have it done, and the vehicle checked out completely.

I just brought a 1998 GS400 with right at a 100k miles for 16,900 (w/ Navi). I also had an ex-girlfriend with a 2001 Acura CL. No comparison, hands down the GS400 is the better vehicle. I state this for numerous reasons: I found the CL to be cramped in the inside, the manual shifter in the GS to me was more responsive, and 300 horse is hard to match. To find a vehicle in your price range go to Auto Trader or Ebay, you will be surprise how many private sellers are looking to buy new vehilces and get rid of the GS.

SUP to everyone, I just purchased a 1998 GS400. I had a 94 GS300, I did not want to get rid of her, but after 260k miles I figured I got my money's worth. I am basically looking to keep the performance and the feel of the GS400, so I plan to put some wheels on, but not bigger than 18's. If anyone has any suggests please feel free to hit me back. Take care
