F-Sport Stock height before install
Here are the photos of current stock F-Sport RWD with 18" F-Sport wheels. Stock F-Sport has too much gaps. Next week I will post photos after RS-R Super Down springs are installed but without alignment. Then finally on the March 15th I will have the Vossen CV4 installed and aligned.
Received one 1 of the 4 tires.

Something strange .. I thought those were the wheels for the LUXURY version? The F-Sport should have 19" wheels with a different design.

Scheduled for March 11th if I want a Lexus loaner and earlier if I don't need one. I may be able to drop off the car this week. Need to find a temp car while it is at the dealer for the spring install and if I have time this week.

RS-R Springs Installed (Measurements)
First picture is stock and second is RS-R (Driver Side). Front then rear sets.
Front drop is about 1.5"
Rear drop is about 1.25"
This may change after the springs settle and get it aligned when I get my Vossen CV4 wheels. Wheels will be here at next weekend and tires (received only 1 out of 4
).

How is the ride on those springs. Please describe the difference from the stock springs. It is jarring hitting abrupt bumps in the road and expansion joints? I have always had waaaaay better luck with coilovers than springs, but I have heard nothing but good things about these RSR springs.
