Would ny car look alright if I lowered it on the stock wheels?

I have enough cash to either get a nice set of new wheels and tires, or a set of nicer coilovers.

Thanks!

Go with new wheels and tires.

Coilovers are useless unless you go to a track every weekend.

Stay away from them if your on bumpy backroads which it looks like you are on your pic

Just get heavy duty shocks and new springs firm the ride up for like $400 or less then Non niggerstance rims

I want coilovers because I need adjustability.

I live in canada, so in the winter I would like it to be taller and in the, summer, lower.
>>
No you faggot, you should never lower ANY car, period. OEM is the only way
Ha, you think you know better than the people who made it?

Noted friendo :^)

Thats fucktarded mate sorry just no

>>14728538
I understand your idea. I get why you would do it... but it's gonna just cost a bunch of money, and be a pain in the ass/impossible to properly adjust the coilovers.. assuming you don't have the right type of scale for cornering the suspension in your car..just won't do anything for you
>>14728292
Op, buy new tires and rims. Car looks fine at the hight it is and quality tires will give you a nice improvement in many more aspects of handling than lowering a daily driver that isn't supposed to be low and probably doesn't touch a track.

Is it auto or manual?
If manual go the coils
If auto get wheels or better yet bank cash until youve got the money to convert it

Have you thought about painting them black?

SC400 Owner here,

Get the set of wheels and tires, coilovers will ruin the experience. As for living in canada, taller or lower won't matter but guess what tires will.

You can go for custom wheels or even go for OEM Lexus wheels from the LS430,IS300, IS250 if you want.

Auto. Not gonna bother converting it anytime soon though. I don't like the stock wheels so I'm not gonna paint them black I just want new ones.
>>14729516 it may not touch the track, but I do live where there are a lot of twisty mountain roads and I don't like the body roll. Especially when Hondas can catch up to me in the corners that's annoying
>>
>>14729699
Ok you guys are kinda convincing me to not get coilovers now.

The main reason I want them is so when I put bigger wheels on it won't be a monster truck

Chop a coil off the springs
