You can use them together. It would probably make the ride stiffer though.

I called insurance just to make sure that the "modification" would not void my policy. I don't know how it is in the States, but up here, I've heard stories of people getting denied for claims and/or having their insurance cancelled altogether because of "modifications" such as lowering, exhaust, etc.

Now I have to figure out where to order the springs from...

Yeah there would be an issue but I thought the majority of the change would show within the first two weeks. After that the springs may settle some more but probably nothing more than half an inch.

My local Lexus dealership says the F-sport springs are for '07-'09 GS' only. I'm told they will fit on my '06 GS300 RWD. Anyone know for sure? Has anyone on this site installed them on an '06 already?

I don't recall anyone doing it for the 06 RWD yet but I would suspect that it'd fit too.
