Looks good! Does anyone have pix with Down without the spacers? Does it make that much of a difference?

Thanks! It makes a big difference for sure. Check out page 8 (3rd post from the bottom) to see what it looks like with no spacers. The last picture from the back shows how drastic the difference is.

Has anyone had any issues aligning the car or uneven tire wear after RSR Down install?

Just installed my rsr super downs. Best springs I've ever installed on a car. Rides like stock & height is perfect.

I have the rsr super downs & they are not bouncy at all. I assume rsr downs would ride quite as nice.

I know you guys didn't get as much snow as we did up here in MA, but how was the clearance with the snow? Also do the spacers affect the ride at all?

Defiantly going with RSR Down with 20mm spacers, but I do have the same questions like everyone else. How is the tire wear and do you need the camber to be adjusted after installing the springs.

Can't decide between the RSR springs or SPORTi coilovers for a IS350 F-Sport AWD.
For those of you on RSR springs, how are your shocks doing? Since these are variable shocks, I can only assume how much it would cost to replace them.
I would much rather get coilovers but will that cause any dash error since the variable shocks are no longer there?

Also, does the 3IS AWD have the same problem with 2IS AWD where you can't go too low else the CV Boots will rip?

Which springs fix the reverse rake in the car the best?
