not sure what you mean here?? if you are asking if you get shocks also will it sit lower? the answer is no. It will compliment the springs but its no necessary IMO. Its all about what you want and are looking for. There are members that have used the OEM shocks with springs for a long time and had no problems. I havent had any issues with mine to date

drop it on Tanabe DF210 3GS springs...alot of 2IS in miami are riding with this setup. It gives you the one of the lowest drops.

lol.

to the OP... the f-sport springs won't drop your car that much. i think an inch up front, and 0.6" in the rear?

btw, for anyone wanting the f-sport springs, for the price that lexus is asking for those f-sport springs you might as well tein h-techs. same drop, not as expensive.

that is, unless you really, really want to preserve the factory warranty, or you have money to burn...
