Default Lowering springs

I have a 2011 Is350 Fsport. My car is on KYB gas a just struts and i think stock or kyb springs not entirely sure. But it isnt lower than stock height as far as i can tell (havent had a stock IS next to mine so I wouldn't be able to tell). I dont want to go with coilovers, bc ive done that route before and dont wanna wear out my control arms and such and we have bad roads in my area. I already have almost new struts so I wanna know what springs would be the best for my car giving the struts it has and if those Fsport springs are actually what im looking for. Im considering Fsport springs because OEM car will keep its value since i have all other Fsport accessories on my car.

PS. this is my cars current height





any input is appreciated!

F sport would be a great choice that won’t wear out the shocks too quickly. You could also build some coilovers and choose not to slam the car. I’m switching over to Fortune Auto coils but I’m lowering it more than what I on my H&R springs. Just looking for greater comfort. You may still have wheel gap with the F-sport springs.

F-Sport Lowering Springs would be the best choice, but hard to get as they are discontinued. It took me a month to get mine and I had to jump through a bunch of hoops, call dealerships all over the country. I finally got mine from Discount Parts Monster from a dealership in Florida
