Hello every one!
First of all, I’d like to introduce myself, Ali from Saudi Arabia (lives in Canada), and I just joined Club Lexus few days ago. I love LEXUS since I was a kid! My very first Lexus was (IS 350 2008), right now I'm driving GS350 RWD 2013 (Fire Agate Pearl) luxury package (upgrade front bumper to F-sport). I have a nice project for my Lexus, and I decide to share with you. I’m in progress of ordering the parts most likely I will get them from US and will get them shipped to Saudi Arabia (its way cheaper and better to do it this way because everything is more expensive back home!) please feel free to share your ideas and experience with my. I am really confused about lowering my car, should I go with RSR coilover or J5 coilover or RSR super down springs. Also I love the look of the drilled rotors, but I don't want to get a big break kit for 7k! because I don't need it. Please help me with that. I will keep you updated!
My love
I dig your setup! Just lowered my GS on RSR Downsus springs and am waiting for the Vossen VFS-2 to be installed this spring. Remember that with coilovers you'll loose the variable suspension setting.

For the rest, good luck!
The car in saudi, I'm in Canada for school congratulation for your new spring! still don't know if I should go with coilovers or the super down spring, my biggest concern is the drive quality while the car is lowered, I don't really care about the adjustment feature in the coilovers or losing the variable suspension setting. I hope that someone give me the right recommendation here!
New update:
I ordered all the parts!
However, I'm still waiting for Aimgain Japan for the carbon front lip
I want to replace OME breaks and rotors for (ceramic - drilled rotors), but the big break kit is very expensive and I dont really need them. any ideas or suggestions
I just got my wheels VFS2
However, for the front offset I was asking for 38 but they gave me 32
how is that sound? is it ok to run the 32? which one would look nicer?

You and me both, I've been waiting for my lip as well. I think you should go with the J5 coilovers as they are the only ones that work with our AVS unless you already purchased something. Its worth every penny, I currently have them and love them.

pleas share
32 will be much closer to the edge of the fender. That's what I'm running in the front. I had the vfs1 vossens and I had no issues with the 32 up front. You should be fine. But on tire size I went with a 245/30 on front and 275/30 rear with no issues.

I already ordered RSR super down springs! I will try them first but most likely I'll switch to coilovers ..., for the Aimgain lip I think I should get it in 3 weeks

Which one would look nicer 32, or 38? I will go with RSR super down springs should I go with 245/35/20 or 245/30/20. what kind of lowering system are you using for your car? could you pleas share some pic!
