Just ordered them with Swift springs. Lets see how long it takes. Thanks for the advice. I will hold off on new wheels (probably Velgen VMB8 or Split 5's) and summer tires until May as it snows until Mother's Day in CO.

So this brand allows you to use the Lexus key for to start car...? Is it similar to what this poster below said? Hitting button multiple times?

So you pay the monthly fee via that Lexus Enform app??

FYI, I installed Tanabe lowering springs on my 2015 AWD and the ride quality is pretty close to stock. Also added 19x9" front and 19x10" rear wheels. Very happy with the setup.

How many miles are on those shocks? Debating if I should do coilovers. I'm at 65k miles.

I have 50,000 miles on the car. I installed the springs and waited two months before installing the wheels to make sure I was good with clearance.

i don’t. They send you a link with instructions when you purchase it. It’s fairly simple. Only 3 wires to tap.
