Ride Quality with Lowering Springs
With stock springs a lexus is amazing. But with aftermarket springs to lower the ride how are your ride qualities?
I want a drop with the same luxury quality and smoothness as the stock lexus springs. Should i just opt for the Fsport springs as they are made by lexus?

im on f sport springs which are basically eibachs. i also have f sport shocks which are bilstein. the ride is stiffer then stock. but the improvement in handling and stance kinda counter balances. it doesnt handle like a go kart now but its a noticeable difference from stock. but to answer your question, YES it will diminish your ride quality.

i went with road magnet and these springs will give you the most drop then any other springs... unless u get coilovers of course but the smoothness is still there. but u can feel it a lot stiffer then stock so but check out my threads i have pics of my car lowered on RoadMagnet springs

question for you guys. i have carpel tunnel, i have sport suspension, its really easy on the hands, i do eventually want to lower, i expect worse ride quality, however what setup is best to go with that wont stiffen turning radius of the steering wheel?
any coil overs i can choose that wont effect steering radius too much?

My main concern with the car when I got my tires/springs was that it will ride like *****.
Rolling on 265/30 was he biggest one i'd say but after I installed everything I was amazed at how good it rode after.
Car is sligtly stiffer but still very soft, rolling on h&r springs and hankook v12 tires on 19's.
Anyone debating on it, dont worry and go ahead!!

I've got BC coilovers 12k/10k set to 24/32 28/32 dampening and the ride still isn't too bad ,) I had the sport (fsport) package setup at first and it ran super smooth, much noticeable difference with my current setup but I ride low on 20's in a place where smooth roads don't exist. Gotta take some loses for some gains
