I'm seriously considering ordering these springs, but I have a couple stupid questions. Could my local Lexus dealership install these? (Call me paranoid, but I hate the thought of taking my baby to some independent shop). Also, will these springs void the warranty on the suspension?

Well, I answered one of the questions myself. The service manager at my dealership said they won't install them.

Not too surprising regarding the install. I remember some dealerships were refusing to install the L-Tuned suspension on the 2nd gen GS...and those parts were made by Toyota/TRD.

I was also wondering about the warranty, especially how the springs would effect the normal/sport suspension modes.

No not a goner yet, just follow the link on the first page and use the discount code, and your set. Anyone still interested, I still have a few sets left.

Default rubbing and warranty??

I got a couple questions if ya'll could help me out please... wouldn't Tanabe lowering springs cause rubbing against the wheel well if you have 20" wheels with a staggered setup (20x8.5 and 20x10)? And if the service department at Northpark Lexus spots the springs on the GS, would they negate my warranty with Lexus?

Yes and no on the rub. In addition to the sizing that you gave, it will also depend on the offsets and the tire size.

Warranty-wise, they may give you trouble on warrantying suspension problems but everything else should be OK, unless they can prove that the suspension directly broke the radio for example.
