Lowering springs

My friend ordered me a awd h and r springs for my lexus is 250 2007 and I think I got a rwd but would it matter due to this problem or would I have to exchange the springs and get rwd? Thanks for the help

you should exchange the springs IMO. The AWD has a different weight distribution so the spring rates would be different between AWD and RWD

RS-R engineers the AWD and RWD Springs and Coilovers seperate. They are different and purpose built for each model. They even engineer coilovers specifically for the GS 450h.. No one else does that!
