Default F-Sport Springs Question

Can anybody point me to a source that can give me a definitive answer regarding the AVS system and F-Sport springs. I would like to lose a little fender well gap and I have decided against coil-overs, but would like to retain the use of the "Sport/Norm" AVS switch. My understanding, it should continue to work after springs only install, since the switch controls the shock valve. The only potential issue might be the AFS headlight leveling which I can adjust at passenger rear wheel and clear code, if one shows up, correct? Now I have performed search in Club Lexus forum and other Lexus forums and although I do find posts I am getting conflicting answers and/or many are from YEARS ago. I would simply like to know if the system will work if I just install F-Sport springs, sway bars and new strut mounts (mine are rattling a bit after 154K miles). I appreciate your input.

I’m running the F-Sport springs on my 2007 GS450H and my AVS function works just fine. No codes or anything whatsoever.

When it came to sway bars, there is a difference between AWD and RWD.

I think I need to find someone with this set up on an 06-07 GS 430 to be on the safe side, but thanks for the reply

Did you already purchase, or do you have the proper F-Sport part number ?
