Default Lowering springs experience?

Hi there, I am trying to firm up a little bit this extra wobbly RX350 with some lowering springs and so far for 2008 there is only Eibach offering a set, there is also H&R but only for 2004-2006. Does anyone know what the difference might be between the two models? Car looks identical to me!

Also, anyone had these installed for longer use? Any issues at installation or further down the road? Any alignment issues?
Looking forward to buying the Eibach but wanted to see what is the word out there.

Any other recommendation beside Eibach? I tried to find stiffer sway bars, but no lock. Basically the sway bar would help car not sway so much left to right which is extremely annoying and gives a sensation of instability.

Yeah yeah, I know Lexus is made for comfort, yeah I know I can sell and buy a BMW but so far this is the car I have to drive

The only difference that I know from the suspension side is that the RX350's sit higher than the RX330's. So I expect you would probably need to go lower than a standard RX330, which might mean you will probably have to change your shocks. I am intending of lowering my RX330 by about 20-30mm on King Springs.
