L-Tuned consists of 1" lowering springs, made for us by Eibach. Shocks are OE Eurospec made in Japan by Kayaba (KYB), approximately 40% stiffer over stock.
gs4will can get you the Bilstein set-up

is there a difference between the eibach spring and the l-tuned springs?
because on the eibach website it says that the spring lowers the car by 1.2" while l-tune lowers the car only by 1".
steve, could u clear the air on this issue?

Lexus hired Eibach to design the spring(rate)around the OE Euro shocks, so it's a "matched" set-up.
The 1.2" drop is designed for a more aggresive shock(Bilstein) Same company, slightly different spring
