You can check the specs of the Sway Bars here:
http://www.fsport.com/

IS250AWD can only use the rear
IS250 should probably order both, since there is a 45% difference for both front and rear.
IS350 can probably get away with just the rear (order AWD pkg), since front is only 6% different.

Also, for people that are thinking of doing it themselves or someone other than Lexus, be aware that you may run into problems unscrewing the toe links.
In my case Lexus is cutting them off and installing new ones (w/o extra fees)

If it's about 45% difference for both F and R on the IS250 RWD, wouldn't getting just the rear be more beneficial as the stock IS250 RWD comes from the factory with a slightly more understeer?

Does anyone know if the front IS250 AWD or IS350 OEM sway bars can be put into a IS250 RWD car? I think it does since the F-sport works, but just want to make sure. If so, it would be cheaper for IS250 RWD owners to buy just the rear F-Sport sway bar, and buy the OEM IS250 AWD or IS350 sway bars either from dealers or from other members (maybe not IS250 AWD owners, but IS350 owners who might be replacing their front bars) since they aren't that much different from the F-Sport front sway bar. Or not, if someone really wants the F-Sport brand.

^^^ i see....i don't know if any 350er would just sell their front sways..but one thing for sure is if you get the IS350 front sways from dealer..it is going to be more expensive than F-sport. use F-sport intake for example, i called and ask how much is the OEM airbox for intake(so i can DIY the extra hole for sounds) and they said this part is going to cost $600something for just the OEM airbox. and the F-sport air intake is cost like 350? that's why i got the F-sport instead of DIY....lol.....
