H&R and KYB installed!
Here is a quick picture, car is not clean. Love it so far. The wallowing is gone, you know when the stock suspension hits a dip, it takes a while to recover. This combo recovers quick. I feel it is 10% firmer and did not sacrifice too much ride quality (very rough road it feels a bit more bumpy but not uncomfortable). I am glad I went with KYB and not Biilstein as I did not want more stiffer ride, rather a bit more control when taking fast sweeping turns. Thanks for all the help.
Will post more pics later. BTW, the stock wheels are growing on me now. What do you think? But the tires that came with the car suck and they need to go (Falkens I think).
I am considering 17s now in an effort to not make the car not lose more ride quality with 18s. I know many have said 18s would be fine, but I am not convinced specially since you can get 55 series in a 17 and would have to go to 45s on a 18s.

does the car still have that floaty LS feel? i'm getting my H&R's installed tomorrow, i can't wait... the H&R's make it a good height, i just hope they don't make the ride suffer too much. i'm also gonna have to be extra careful when pulling out of certain areas now

Still retains some of the floaty Lexus ride, just less. Feels smoother to me on bumps also due to faster recovery.
Yes, the drop looks good, it has been 2 days now and I have driven it extensively, very impressed.
