That looks good. Do you think a 2" drop, or 1.5", would be too much and potentially scrape the front lip on curbs or parking space blocks?

Mmm, those CV2's look good! Funny that was one of the first cars that came to mind when I opened this thread.

I think 1.5 is more that enough, so u wont have any rubbing issue.

Default Lowering Springs

I have a 2013 GS 350, my rim guy told me 22's will not fit so I am going to go with 20's. I have the AWD model. Does anyone know of a company that makes lowering springs for the AWD model. I can only find the RWD springs but they will not work for me. Thanks.

i think the cv3 looks the best out of the 3.

definitely consider a drop if you are getting 20's. it doesnt have to be slammed! just enough to get rid of some/all fender gaps
