Question about struts
I installed F-sport lowering springs yesterday and during the process, noticed the rods of the front struts do not come back up after being pushed down by hand. Since Im fairly new to Lexus, I want to make sure these cars dont come with some kind of special strut that makes this movement normal. Or is this a definite sign of worn struts? Probably a dumb question but doesnt hurt to ask Car has 50k miles

I just made a thread regarding the F sport lowering springs. So how do you like the drop, u think it's enough? I just want something to compliment new rims I'll be getting nothing too crazy so I think f sport springs are the route I'll be going. No need to keep swapping coils and stock susoenintfor winter /summer I'll just leave the springs on all year. I think I'll also get new struts with it.

So Ive been tossing around the idea of just going with coilovers for ease of installation and being completely content that the ride is even all the way around and having it just a little bit lower. Like I said, I have no idea why this is bugging me now lol when this isnt the first car I've lowered. F-sport springs do provide a nice drop that looks better than stock and doesnt slam the car. If I do go with coils, the F-sport springs will be for sale. Im still undecided on what to do. I do know Im not spending a crazy amount of money on coils if I go that route
