The picture does not do much justice but I can confirm it drops and noticeable in person. I have the same F Sport springs/shocks set up on IS350. Even though the drop is subtle, handling is improved much more while ride quality still remains smooth as stock.

For the measurement:
Before: ~3-4 finger gaps in front, ~2-3 finger gaps in the rear.
After: a little bit more than 1 finger gap in front, a little bit more than1 finger gap in the rear.

One thing that is interesting is that the left side is lower than the right side a little bit.

Can someone confirm that they don't get any sort of issues when doing this on the 250 AWD? I interesting in getting the fsport springs/shocks, but I don't want to deal with any shaking that people experience when doing coils on the 250 AWD.

I don't have AWD but on the RWD, the F Sport springs/shocks have no issue with noise, no shaking whatover, no harsh ride, no rubbing, no scraping on driveway like many slammed car on coil. It is almost as smooth as stock but with improved handling.

Was the member's car an AWD?

Well I guess everybody's definition of a "drop" might be different. Maybe your definition of a drop is either tucked, or zero fender gap?

As for me, after having it installed I thought it dropped a little too much lol.

FSportIS's measurement is pretty spot on, about 1.5 finger gap all around. Before I could almost fit my whole fist inside the front fender well, haha.

Those of you with a RWD model, did you need buy the rubber to go around the springs?

You mean the Tein rubber silencer. I put 2 pairs on the rear (1 per each shock) to prevent any clunking noise. Don't use too many because you make it higher.

I still have 3 pairs brand new. Will let it go for $15 local pick up.

Do you have the part number? If you ever decide to ship it to Canada, shoot me a PM.

I don't know the part number but they are medium size like this http://www.tein.com/products/silencer_rubber.html

I'm afraid shipping to Canada can be expensive like the parts itself lol. Shoot me your zip code in PM and i'll check the shipping cost for ya.
