I dont have the Tanabe DFs, but i have the Tein S-tech for the GS300. I took about 3/4 of a coil off in the front to even my drop with the rear. Are the Tanabe DFs you have specifically for the IS? I can tell you it will get a bit stiffer if you snip a coil off, so dont expect the ride quality to stay the same.

Yeah, i might go with the "GS" version for a more aggressive drop and have the front coils clipped to even. It depends if I get any feedback here from ISx50 owners with df210s made for the 2nd gen IS and can confirm an even drop. But, from the pictures of the springs on Tanabe's site, the front still looks a tad bit high in the front.
