I did the same thing on my old 91, Tanabe DF210's on stock struts.

Yes they will blow, mine did, but surprisingly the ride wasn't bad at all. It was still very very smooth.

Here's a photo if it helps what you're looking for. Wheels were 20"x8.5" +40 offset, 6.3 backspace TSW Mondello's. Tires were Toyo Proxes 4 225/35-20s

Do you mean the ride wasn't bad at all, after they struts blew? I'm just not sure if I want to risk it. Wouldn't the tire ride ON the fender if the strut blows, and damage the tire?

Hi guys

I'm mounting Tanabe DF210 springs on my LS from 1993. They will be mounted on my factory struts.. What is your opinion? Will the struts blow within short time or? What is your experiences

Thanks for any replies :)

I'm thinkin' about wheels from Wald. But I can't seem to find a place to buy WALD! The only place i've found is L-tuned parts. Do you know if there's any other websites?

9,5" wide? is that possible without spacers?

Hi,

I'm thinking about getting some 19" rims and Tanabe lowering springs on my LS400 from 1993. Since 16"x7" standart, will the 19"'s fit and how much wider than 7" can the rim be before its to much?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm thinking about getting some 19" rims and Tanabe lowering springs on my LS400 from 1993. Will they fit and how wide in inches can the rim be before its to much?

Thanks

Does anyone know where I can buy Wald wheels for my LS400 (1993)?

I've found L-Tuned Parts, but is there any others?

Thank you for any replies

you're also fortunate to be driving a pre-95. If your timing belt does go you're not in any danger of your engine imploding, unlike later engines. There's MUCH less danger in putting it off in the GenI's

30k, easily.

My original went from 0----->132,000 miles over the course of 15 years.

Sounds great.. :)

Thanks for the replies.

Looking forward to being part of this Lexus club. Its hard to get information about Lexus in Denmark, europe generelly

Hi, and hello from Denmark. Great forumsite.. ;)

I've recently bought a LS400 1993 with 199.000Km on it (Approx. 125.000miles). I've heard differrent opinions about how long the timing belt can last. Have read somewhere at every 90.000miles? My car got the timing belt changed at 102.000Km (Approx. 64.000miles) was that to early or do I need to change the timing belt now?

Thanks,

Daniel N.
