Should I go with some F-Sport springs or get some aftermarket springs or coilovers? I have an AWD so it is really high right now, would like to go with this look :

What setup should I get?
The suspension forum is pretty dead so I hope I can get some replies here.
Thanks!

Do you value the nice quiet vibration free ride you have now?
Many have lowered the AWD, almost just as many put it back after they find out what it does to the car's personality. Wobbles, shakes, vibration. Its not really all that pleasant.

^ that actually looks really good. good to hear its only with passengers. So one more little adjustment and your golden
here is what I would suggest if you or others want to try...

this is from a S2000 but look at the rear axle and the spacers used. The S suffers from the same issues when lowered and this has been used to correct the problem. I had them on my S before selling it and they worked great. Not sure if anyone makes them for Lexus but they should be easy for someone to make if not.
So these three items could be the cure to the AWD wobble issues when lowered.
Hope someone gives it a try and reports back
