None of those are good. Get Eibach, H&R or Intrax.

Just curious do the eibachs ride ok on the Lexus? I mean the ES300 is known for its super absorbent ride does it lose any of that or does it just gain more body control?

eibach or
H&R
do not buy intrax the develop sagging easily in the back
they unlike the others do not use cold rolling and shot peening
plus a lower level of heat stress and pretension prior to being sold
spings are pretty complicated
H&R does have a bigger drop for the european market if you can find a good preformance shop who has worldwide accounts to order them
but hand r are a bit fuinny with their products being cross sold ( they also make the euro springs blue not black for that reason)

The Eibachs ride fine on an ES300. It's the struts that are a big factor in dampening and ride comfort. A set of Tokicos will work best with the Eibachs. Of course you lose some of the plushness of the ride at the expense of more control and better handling.
