Which route to go with lowering?
Hi guys, new member here. Just purchased a white GS350 AWD 2008. Stock height is very high and its the first thing I wanted to do. All maintenance/etc is up to date and the car is wonderful. Also have a bumper to bumper warranty for another 48k miles/4yrs.
The main thing for me is ride quality. I want to be lower, but not so low where ride quality is not Lexus like. Which coilovers or springs should I get? I have done some searching but nothing conclusive.
Please provide your opinions on your cars. Keep in mind it is AWD.
Thanks in advance and look forward to being a member here!

with the common issues of wobble/vibrating on the AWD I suggest going with the RCA's to lower your suspension. There are now two threads on these and its the first choice if I was looking. If you want coils I think BC is the only option. Springs you can pretty much go with any.
front RCA's
rear RCA's
front RCA's
rear RCA's
not sure if any AWD owners have tried this yet, but I assume not since the rears are just now available. Its not going to drop your car the same as the RWD so I would go with the most aggressive drop front/rear. IMO its worth a try considering the issues the AWD is prone to with coils or aggressive lowering springs.
PM the member that started both of those threads, I think there are two places to get them but its been a while so best to ask that member.
