colin, your front tuck on stocks looks slightly better than mine, unless its the shadowing. Maybe mine are still settling as well, as they've only been on a week. I'm hoping spacers and 19s will help make the front look a little more flush and take away that extra wheel gap space.
Here are some crappy iPhone photos I snapped a few nights back (sorry for the dim lighting)...

Looks good! But yes, it does look like the UW IS's front does sit a little lower than the MRM IS's front. I'm switching my Down's for Super Downs on AWD next weekend and I hope it's a big difference, also adding on 20mm spacers to flush it out. I'll post pics when it gets done.

It does look a little higher all around. almost looks like your car is on Downs and not Super Downs. i am actually very pleased with the ride quality. its a little stiffer but nothing i can't stand

Hi everyone - I'm new to the forum. I'm ordering downs or super downs this week and have some questions. I love the look of super downs and was concerned after reading the suspension bottoming out on the rwd set ups due to .75" of travel.
My car is an awd - so it looks like the super downs on awd cars sit around .5" higher than rwd cars if I'm reading these posts properly.
How do awd cars ride with super downs and are they able to be aligned within spec?
If super downs on awd cars sit half an inch higher then they do on rwd set ups then I have to assume the additional travel makes super downs on an awd car a nicer ride then they are on rwd cars?
The white awd F sport with facotry wheels posted looks amazing!!!
My car is a 2015 awd IS 250 F sport
So much appreciated

I'm planning on getting RS-R Super Downs and I got some questions I want to ask about your experience.
1. Ride quality?
2. How does your vehicle do during winter time?
3. Fitment for wheels?
4. Any rubbing?
Kind regards,
Howard
