Default Sikky IS250/350 Adjustable Rear Sway Bars!!

Hey everyone

We were lucky enough to get the chance to install and test one of Sikky’s new Lexus ISF/250/350 rear sway bars! Everything with the install went smoothly and according to plan. The sway bar comes with all the necessary hardware including some really nice urethane bushings to replace the factory units and heavy duty heim joint endlink sets with adjustable preload turnbuckles. As per all Sikky products the quality was top notch. With it being 3 way adjustable you are able to set the bar stiffness to work best for your setup which is a really nice feature. The softest setting is equivelant to a Fsport bar but the two stiffer settings allow you to compensate for larger tires or more aggressive driving style. Check out a few pics below to see the final product. You can contact us locally to get one installed or go direct to Sikky to purchase a sway bar. Here is the link to their website:

Here's us removing the FSport bar:

What are the sizes of the bars, and what stiffness change do they claim for the 3 settings? (ie x% stiffer than stock)....

So even the stiffest setting is still less stiff than the F-sport bar... that's kinda disappointing... was hoping they'd have made something where maybe the "middle" setting was similar to the F-sport, so you can do that, or go stiffer or less stiff, as you prefer

I think you misread the orig post.... The SOFTEST setting is similar to the F-sport and there are two "stiffer" settings.

Sorry for the confusion guys. After contacting SIKKY I got some more direct information on the bars.

IS250/ISF:

Outer: 48%
Middle: 92%
Inner: 173%


IS350:

Outer: 157%
Middle: 201%
Inner: 282%
