Do any lowering springs exist for the ES350?
Just purchased a 13 ES350 and cannot find springs anywhere 
I have called everyone from Les Schwab to custom shops and no one has any name brand or custom options for lowering my car.
I really want to put 19's on the car but only if I can find a way to lower it.
Anyone know of any?
(I assume there must be some out there, as I have noticed pics of slammed 2013's)

FYI I just got this email back from D2 Racing-
So it looks like they have some in the works
We are still in development of the 2013 chassis ES350. We are expecting them in ~4-6 weeks. We will contact you as soon as they are available and let you know a definitive date and final pricing. Thank you.

Took gekae24's advise and I can confirm the TEIN springs from 07-11 Camry's fit perfect.
Lowered it 1.5 inch-

Stock 2013 Lexus ES350 vs 2013 Lexus ES350 lowered 1.5."+20" TSW Wheels
vs
Attachment 499167
vs
as far as the ride is concerned-
-Its stiffer and you can feel the bumps in the road a lot more, but it still rides nice and cornering feels a lot better because of less body roll. If you have ever driven any of the Lexus FSport models it will feel very similar.

It looks like you are hiding about 1/2" of tread under the rim? sound about right?
the overall diameter of the both sets of wheels and tires should be about the same, (or the Odo would be off), so If I changed the springs I'd be hiding 1/2" of rubber under the rim too.... make sense?
I would really like a stiffer ride.
if you get a chance, Please take a shot directly from the side looking at the front wheel, so I can see how much rubber is under the rim.
-You didn't need to roll the fender, Right?
TIA!

The main reason for me, not to go to bigger rims is mpg. (300h)
I'm thinking if I stick with the stock rims and tires, I shouldn't take a hit on the mpg's, but still get the firmer ride I want....
