Need opinions on lowering springs
So I just bought new 18" rims for my gs400. My wheels are 18x8 +38 on 235/40/18 tires. I am planning to give it a lil drop. I don't want her sits too low and I want to keep the smoothness of 2gs. Which springs should I go with? I have 3 options for the springs, Eibach pro kit, H&R, and Tanabe DF210. Which one should I go with? Please give ur opinions.. and do I need to fold the rear fender lip? Thanks guys!
one new question, do I need to roll the rear fender if I go with either one of this spring? considering occasionally I bring 4 adults + luggage on my car. Thanks again!

It seems you do not want a drop as low as the DF's, folks who do not want that low of a drop + lexus oem feel for springs goes for the NF210's. your popular options for something not too low would be L-tuned, eibach, nf's, teins, rca's. anything else after that i believe gives you the best looking drop with springs but check if it is suitable for your driving conditions? i personally have the eibach + kyb combo on 18x9's (a little less than 2 finger gap all around) and its nice on decent pavements but can get harsh on some rough nyc roads and gets annoying going in and out of steep driveways/entrances since we have alot of 2-3 in high steep & short driveways.
