2013 Lexus ES350 lowered 1.5 inches on-
20" TSW MAX wheels on Toyota Camry 1.5" TEIN Lowering springs
(2007-2011 TEIN Toyota Camry springs fit perfect for anyone looking to drop)
Definite change in ride quality after the 20's and drop. Not bad, but you can now feel the road/bumps a lot more and you lose the soft subtle stock Lexus ride. Car now rides very similar to a 2013 GS 350 F Sport.

That's just sick. I love it man. Have you experienced any rubbing at all? And this is a dumb question, but I've never dropped a car before: with the 1.5" drop, are things like turning into the driveway at home or parking in a spot that has a curb in the front big deals now?
No rubbing on the wheels/fenders. With the wheel wells on the es350's so tall it didn't require any rolling of the fenders or mods. Wheels and drop fit perfect. As far as driving is concerned 1.5 inch requires no special driving. Speed bumps/drive ways are fine even at full speed. Any lower probably would have been an issue. I had a slammed(2.5-3 inches) Mazda years ago that was a pain driving. But 1-1.5 inch drop is just enough to fill the wheel well and not give it that 4x4 look while still maintaining normal driving.
That drop looks great.
No other changes to the suspension besides springs?

Looking for the right wheel width and offset in particular. And also tirespecs. IMHO so far your set up is best
