A bit about the modifications suspension LEXUS RX.I think many people like the car with landing below the factory.
You can do this in three ways:
1. Air suspension. Not cheap, but a great opportunity.
2. Adjustable dampers. RS-R. TANABE. Allows you to choose the height and stiffness of the suspension in a predetermined adjustment range.
3. Lowering springs. Allow to understate budgetary 30-40mm suspension while maintaining comfort. Compatible with factory shock absorbers.
On RX450h photos with springs mounted RS-R Ti2000 (-30mm). Choose and order the suspension to suit your purpose, you can contact our company.

I do believe option 2 speaks about coil-overs if I'm not mistaken.
I'll double check with Mike@Vossen (he has the first set of RS*R springs in the US for his 4RX F-Sport straight from RS*R) to see which springs he has.
I personally want to have stiffer shock absorbers (or struts?) if that's an option to reduce body roll.
Check Nigel-JDMParts forum vendor website. I saw some yesterday.
saw it on his website $475 for modellista brand.... I couldnt get any description on how low is the drop.
i think ill wait for other options thanks for the headsup

that is the exact height i want my ride to be! I did get a email back from RSR this week.. They said the RS-R will be ready by the end of the year.

That was for the retail price in Japan with whatever the exchange rate was back when the article was written. With the current exchange rate it would retail IN JAPAN for $400 usd. You have to figure shipping from Japan and any other fees associated with importing them into to the US. I dont think what nigel-jdmparts is asking is unreasonable considering no one else is importing them right now.

That's good, thank you for your insight. Please let us know when you've reviewed these springs on your 4RX, we'd love to see how they work out. Hopefully, one day we can get a group buy going!
I wonder if we can use the factory shock absorbers with the Modellista springs, and how much drop they are.
Anybody know if Tanabe is designing lowering springs for the 4RX?
i just went on their website and didnt see any springs for the RX(all years) so its not looking too hopeful especially since they have NX springs available.

Tanabe has the coil-overs (Tanabe Sustec Pro CR) for the 4RX in other markets other than the US at the moment. I've inquired with the US office for availability and price. I spotted a group buy in the Asian RX Club that just ended 11/7 For around $910 (coil over springs and struts). Pictures they posted are here:
I cannot confirm yet if they are the red or purple ones but here's another translated post for them:
