**Official Alignment Info for ISx50**
Lets make this a Sticky and those who have had there car done please post your info for others to see. This can help with a lot of the questions that many have on the TOE and Camber for our car after its lowered!
Also Note that the TOE can be adjusted both front and rear! Camber there is no correction at this time unless an aftermarket kit is manufactured for our car!
I will go first! I have an 07 IS350 NonSport. The print out will show the info! Its a PDF so you can download or view for reference! My car had minimal changes required to get it back into spec.
I waited 2 mos before I took my car. Springs are fully settled on my car!
Lets also post our drop and Info.

Here's mine done 2 weeks ago. Interesting to know that the 350s have a different toe range from the 250s.
Dropped on Eibach (250)
Uneven inner tire wear. Outer tire looked new but inner side was bad. I could probably get 2-3k mi more but I went ahead and changed the front tires in fear of a blow out and the noise was getting unbearable.
The toes were within specs but the tech adjusted the front toe because of the tire wear. Hopefully this works coz the PS2s are expensive.

My 350 is stock(not lowered). Stock size tires.
My specs are:
Left Right
Camber -.3 -.6
Caster 7.5 7.5
Toe 0 0
SAI 10.3 10.8
Inc. Angle 10 10.2
Cross Camber .3
Cross Caster -.2
Total Toe 0
My rear tire wear is excellent. Front tire wear is wearing the inside on my new tires again. I think I will go back and try a small amount of Toe-In to try and get better wear on the inside.

I just added the F-Sport shocks only. It seems like my alignment is a little out of spec even with all the adjustments that they could do. Is this bad?
these things sure were a pain to install

If you installed the F-Sport shocks that shouldn't have lowered your car any so why would your alignment be no longer able to get back into spec? Just replacing the shocks should keep your stock ride height no? Unless you lowered with the springs as well.

the shocks shouldn't be holding the car up I don't think... it's the springs.. maybe your springs have to resettle even if they're stock springs??? still.. the alignment should be able to get back into spec. Maybe you should go drive it around hard and then get the alignment checked again.
