RS*R Down Lowering Springs vs Super Down

wperena - Your drop looks amazing! If you felt the IS looked like a monster truck, good think you never got the RC!! I had an IS and I thought the height was more than adequate but then again, I am older and not trying to drop the car too low.

Hi Guys
I'm new here so I wanted to say Hello to everyone
I have an IS200t rwd F-Sport MY2016 (prelift) and I want to lower it a bit. I wanted to go after your advices and get RS-R spring kit, however there is also another option. Do you have any experience with Triple S Suspension https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.792402564253956&type=1&l=a685b5d1b9 ? Will they be fine? They are about to lower a bit more than RS-R Half Down and bit less than Down (I suppose) - Triple S tells that the drop will be c.a. 25-30mm
WDYT??
Getting back to RS-R. I totally like the F-Sport OEM suspension working with stock 18x8j and 18x8.5j wheels. I wouldn't like to change tha handling at all. Will the RS-R springs make the car more soft and comfortable loosing the performance while cornering and braking?
RS-R specs
The same question for Triple S?
Thanks

You will find that almost everyone with lowering springs are on stock shocks.
There are little to no aftermarket struts/shocks available for the 3IS, so everyone uses the stock ones.
Once you aren't doing a crazy drop, the stock shocks hold up pretty good.

Got it. I need to replace my shocks on my 3IS Lexus 350. I assume then I could go with the F-Sport Performance shocks and be just fine ... yes?
