Test fit my AME Shallen LX (98 LS400)

Picked up my wheels yesterday and now just test fitting it to my brothers LS on Tein Cruise Master Coilovers. Since my brother's ride is already riding on coil, I can determine how it’s going to look on my ride when I get my suspension.

Still don't know what kind of tire I should.

AME Shallen LX 9x9.0 + 28, and 19x10.0, +25

Here is my Stock 98 ULP.

Everything is original except for the seat. I got the seat re-wrap OEM style with real leather actually better than the factory.

i dont think a "reset" on the controller will make your car go lower. you need to adjust the front sensors to go a little lower so there is no more travel in the suspension in L mode.
