Default F-Sport Lowering Springs and IS-F Wheels on 2012 IS350AWD

Hey Ed with Woodfield Lexus,
Thought I'd post a few pics of a IS350 we lowered and put IS-F wheels on.

Let me know what you think.

I like it, but what is the intent? I like it b/c it's different from another IS350, but i would not shell out an extra $6k just for another stock wheel. I would rather put that money towards a better and lighter aftermarket set.

Hey Ed within Woodfield Lexus,
Intent-not sure I didn't personally talk with this customer. Customer had purchased a new vehicle and wished to have these items installed before taking delivery. Thought I'd share it with all of you.

Thanks

most that will purchase a new Lexus will rather have OEM parts on the car to make it "look" like the nicer model. Think most of your high line car buyers tend to do this unless they are into the mod scene.

Looks good

I can understand that, and I hope owner didn't have to pay full retail price, but rather a small sum upgrade price.

Looks good but also hope the buyer didn't have to pay that much for the isf rims.

Thanks for the pics, looks nice! How many inches did you lower? Did you change to coilovers?
