Since I have the Certified Platinum warranty I don't think I'll be getting any other springs besides F-Sports (I dont want to void my warranty) and IDK if im happy with that little of a drop. I called my local Lexus dealer today for price quote to install them and they want $900 just for the install thats insane!! I can do it myself but then it wouldn't be under warranty lammmme.

Apparently u didnt read the post when I put up the pictures... I had the wheels from an old car figured why not throw them on since Ive only had the car 3 weeks I 100% agree with everyone an planed to lower the car but now since it will void my warranty and the only thing that wont are f-sports and the dealer wants 900 bucks just for installation and I duno if the f-sport drop is even worth it??

I understood your post. I was just stating as a general rule, large rims/tires like that would only look good after a drop.
Nice rims though... chrome looks good and stands out with a white car.

I'm sorry man but I see fail all over that. The wheels design looks too plain, and the chrome is horrid (way too much). Of course this is just an opinion and I seem to be the few who dislike the looks.
