Not a fan of stretched tires. But you need to lower that car + the tires stick out a bit too much imho, maybe a gentle pull wrapping around the tires when lowered will make it look better. Just a thought. Are the front tires GS-D3s?

Looks good, +1 on what Bing said though about the ride height.  
Words to live by, if you can’t afford to lower and get wheels at the same time, ALWAYS ALWAYS lower first. There’s nothing uglier than a car with +sized wheels at stock ride height. No matter how sick the wheels are.

Ant… the only reason holding me back from lowering the Lex is i’m afraid to loose the comfort of the ride. I’m currently looking into a set of tein coilovers that advertise keeping the ride comfort but don’t know if that’s true.

^^ if it is a DD, you don’t want to run coils because of our -40 degree winters we get.

it will kill the seals in the coils at that kind of temperature
