Default F-Sport Springs on stock rims 2IS Post Pictures Pls

Hello CL community,

I am wondering if anyone can post pictures of their lowered 2IS (AWD preferably) on F-sport springs with stock wheels on. I just want to see how low the car sits on stock rims. Any picture will be appreciated. Thanks

When i was 100% decided on f sport springs, ppl told me to go h&r and honestly the drop looks 100x better than fsport and its super functional.

The Fsport drop is noticeable. It eliminates the huge wheel gap.

Mine isn't AWD but I do have the F Sport springs and shocks and am still on stock wheels. It is notecibly lower than stock and closed up the wheel gap nicely. I can't say I would have chosen the F Sport springs first, but they were already on the shocks when I bought them.

Here's a bunch of pics I found of 250 AWDs with F-Sport springs pursuing the search section of the forums a while ago. I don't recall the member names that posted the pics, so a dozen apologies for using the pics without credit.

Guys, thread is now open to any 2IS lowered on stock rims. I'd like to compare heights between different brands in order to make my decision (i.e. Magnet Road, H&R, Tein, F-Sport, etc.) Please post your pictures.

Thanks
