New Lexus owner here from Jersey 12 IS250
Sup everyone. My name is Joe and I just picked up this 2012 IS250 AWD auto from PA. I got it in Starefire pearl with black interior. Just what I was looking for. This is my daily driver now but I am already thinking bout lowering it but Im scared to give up this comfortable ride. Can you guys help out a guy out and tell me which springs or coilovers would be best to close the wheel gap and rides close to stock? I know that sounds impossible but which is closest? I looked up h&r's but it seems the front has more gap then the back or is that just me? I already got 2 sets of DDM Tuning HID's on the way. I got 35w and 5k for the super bright white look. I should be getting it tinted tomorrow or sometime this week/weekend. So after I do the tints and hids I was thinking of lowering it and spacing out the stockers along with giving them a grey/gunmetal look. If anyone got input on any of that, im all ears. Anyway heres some pics for now. Thanks for lookin guys!

Thank you! Well like I said above I wanna lower it but scared of losing the ride I have now. Its so smooth! I don't wanna lose that. But I cant leave anything I have stock so I must lower it and stance it out a little. I hate wheel gap but I also hate tucked tires.

Your best bet is coilover. When I first got my AWD I looked at the sale rep Awd with fsport spring. I asked him why does your rear sag and front sits high. He was that how it looks. I was like no thank I'll pass on any spring. I was the first AWD on coilover. Only BCR was willing to work with me to create it. So trust me coilover or nothing is my opinion. Lower any car you gonna lose some feel over stock.
