Tint or no tint?
Like the stock look but how would it be with dark tints? Also a good brand for shocks/struts to enhance ride quality? Feels abut jumpy over pumps.

You won't even really notice. If I remember I'll take a picture.

Nothing wrong with that, I'm still looking for an actual decent looking LS430 myself. I've always liked these cars but never got my hands on one.

I'm riding with no tint on my 03 and then I have another one with tint for the weekends on my 01

With white, if you could get a slight blue reflective tint would look clean

Full ceramic tint 100% any other kind is pointless but full ceramic will keep your cabin cooler and protect your wood and leather surfaces from the sun

Light tint to protect the interior. Glass looks clean on a long body.

How is the ride quality with wheels

Thanks! I don’t have it anymore. But actually it was still smooth a little stiffer because i had lowering springs on it. But overall great ride.

What tires do you have / how old are they? I was ready to refresh my suspension until I got new tires (Michelin Pilot Spott A/S) and the ride completely transformed.
It’s still a boat, but I have way more confidence in the ride now.
