Default Pics of ISC with stock wheels and FSport springs?

Looking to pick up an IS350C this month I want to throw on FSport springs, but I'm wondering if they make enough of a difference to warrant another grand I'm spending. I'm not going to change wheels or any other aspects of the suspension.

I can't find a single picture online anywhere with just the stock wheels and the FSport drop. All of them show the F-sport wheels and I find it really hard to tell what the difference will actually be on a stock ISC.

here's a pic with the f-sport springs on stock wheels. It's not flushed, but it is way better than the original wheel gap

Car handles a lot better & tighter

w/ F-sport springs. Get them & don't look back. Btw, you can buy the springs and have any aftermarket shop install.

Thanks, already have This car should have come like this from the factory, especially the F-Sport models. Are you guys on the stock shocks? I have the F-Sport package shocks, I'm assuming they should be fine for the life of the vehicle since it's not that low.

I have the f-sport springs, shocks, and sway bars installed. It's been about 5 years and no problems so far. Way more fun to drive!

F sport SPRINGS cost a grand? Just get some coil over for that kinda dough.

Nice looking ride there Jeff!

Thank you. Got f-sport sways too. Makes big diff on lane changes & cornering. I inquired about replacing stock shocks and my tech said stock fine unless you're doing coilivers.
