my tein s-tech is 1.4 drop front. i'm rubbing little bit because i run overspec tires.. since you shaved and rolled ur fenders for 22", you should be alright.. (i think ), but i hear the drop's not going to be even for AWD model.. front might sit little higher than the rear.. i heard nothing but good things about h&r springs.

when i was on the tein h tech they were perfect for me. i think they started to become soft so i want to go with better springs. i just don't know if its gonna be a big difference from the 1.4 h&r springs to the tein h techs. do you think the drop is a big difference ??

I was not even aware that H&R makes springs for lexus

but they are extremely popular among the bmw crowd and I had nothing but good experience with them.

good luck

not sure H&R can be a lot better than the other springs. it's really your preference for ride height, spring rate, design(linear or progressive), etc., unless some springs have a sagging issue later on. so far Roadmagnet is the only manufacturer designed and tested springs on AWD platform.
