Default 250 RWD - Adding 19s & Vertex full kit...best choice of springs? Tein S-Tech?

I have been searching, reading, looking at pics/specs but still cant make a decision. I will be installing a set of 19s in a few weeks and want to add a drop at the same time. Down the road will get a full Vertex lip kit. I want a nice looking drop so I am going toward the Tein S-Tech springs but dont want to be scraping everywhere after the lip kit is installed.

Anyone with a similar setup have advice/pics. Will the S-Tech drop be a little to low ?

The S-tech drop will be perfect w/ the 19's setup. The H&R spring is the one you want to stay away from..that one will drop it a bit more. What about the Eibach kit for the IS350's? That kit is slightly higher than the Eibach kit for the IS250's..look into that one too

Stech's are NOT too low, I had those and my kit and not once did I scrape anywhere. Just get coils and save your money cause you're going to want it lower....just watch

I almost went w/ the S-Techs but ordered the Eibach Pro kit yesterday...1.4F and 1.0R. Not that much difference from the S-Techs
