You'll be getting a lower drop with the DF210's. I have the NF210's on my GS300 AWD and I think it's a perfect drop. I already scrape the bottom when I drive over fairly steep inclines/declines such as the parking lot ramps when I have three passengers.

Here's the amount of drop (inches) for the GS350:
NF210: 1.1f / 0.8r
DF210: 2.0f / 1.8r

Scrape the bottom? You mean the plastic part, nothing that required repairs?

I should have been more specific. By bottom, I'm talking about the plastic things that are located right in front of each front wheel (what purpose do those things serve anyways?) and I have also scraped my exhaust tips.

Thanks SGT!
That gives me idea (especially the exhaust thing) not to go with DFs!

One more question about springs:
I'm getting GS350 with 18". If I'll drop it with the new springs will I be able to put larger size rims in the future? Thanks!
