Just seemed.to be the most widely used. I saw that there was a chance to get a set of Swifts last week but it was too late as I already had these sitting in my office or else I would have gotten those

UPDATE

After a week and after an alignment either I got used to the ride OR it smoothed out. I think maybe after the springs settle adn get some use, the rougher ride I initially experienced bettered and now I dont even notice it. Couldnt be happier

H&R 20656014 is the part number for the 10mm spacers. If you need a set of 20mm H&R I have them new in box.

Just wanted a drop with the least amount of affect to drive comfort. Being new to the Lexus game this was the one setup I saw the most feedback for on the forum so I figured it was the one to go with. I didn't do a lot of comparison research though, only messaged a couple guys that have been running them for a while to see if there were any issues or regrets. Overall I am very happy. Love the look, ride is honestly equivalent to sport plus mode and I don't run or scrape except in one dip that I never used to scrape on so I just slow some and all is well. I think it's just a small brush of the belly pan and it's def an uncommon dip.

Nice! Is the rear being .1 of a lower drop, can you visually see that the rear sits lower?

@racem78 thanks for sharing! doesn't look noticeable from the picture, I am assuming it looks even in person as well? Also, so you're not scraping through speed bumps and driverways? I originally wanted to leave my car stock as I thought by getting a gs350 that I would be out of the 'game' but this looks so clean. Seriously thinking about this now!
