Good evening gentleman, I've had the lx600 for around 6 months now and the car has been amazing, though i just cannot get over the rake it makes the wheels look disgustingly small, anyways is there anyone that has tried lowering it by moving the rear AHC sensors? I dont mind the lower clearance since im not thrashing the car off-road. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have not, though it wasn't too hard to do so with the 570 version. How about giving it a shot? Take some pics.
To be fair, the stock tires actually are kind of small. I adjusted the sensors on my 570 because the rake bothered me but I don't notice it on my 600. I also put on slightly larger tires with smaller rims which I think helps make the tires look bigger. I keep it in easy access mode too so it's always on low when I park.

This is what the car currently looks like on 285/55/20 tires (weirdly these are the biggest tyres i could find in my country trust me i searched far and wide even neighboring countries.) Ahc on low on the right and normal on the left. Doesn't look the best but its alright if you know of any companies that ship tires world wide that would be appreciated.

No 275/60R20?

They are available but the difference between those and 285/55/20 is minimal, like a difference of half an inch in diameter i think.
Those 285/55R20's are actually a bit smaller than the stock tires IIRC at 32.3". A 275/60R20 is 33" which may not seem like a big difference but would definitely be noticeable and fill out the wheel well better.

Hey I know its been 9 months since you commented this but you were right. The car looked absolutely perfect with 275/60/20 for the short while I kept those wheels. If anyone is in the market for that size get the Pirelli AS scorpion plus 3 probably the best tire I've ever used in terms of comfort and quietness.
Our LX has the coils and adjustable shocks, and I am considering Dobinsons strut spacer(s) for the front strut. I did the same on my old GX460 and was happy with the result.
