looks awesome. did you get the plugs for the front bumper where the holes were for the plate from the dealership?

ThermonMer

they ride well, similar to stock. nice and stiff. as for cornering, i wouldnt know. the car is in bumper to bumper traffic 100% of the time. i dont even think ive taken the car above 30 mph in the past month of daily driving. lol. but the ride height certainly looks great!

as for the plugs - i think i got it from bumperplugs.com or something similar. find a mass bumper plug website that has your lexus paint code.

Why did you remove the bumps stops?

i look at these pics again and it makes me want to get a set of S-Techs and only install the front. it looks like by installing just the front springs, it would then sit just slightly lower than the rear. i'd rather have a slight rake than a lower rear.

is there a way you can make this drop even?? what springs will give the IS RWD an even drop all around? except h&r....thats too low for me

im in the same boat as you ^

i don't want coils. i just want springs that evenly lower. i want to lower the front about 1" and have the rear sit even with that.

Tein will lower the front more than h and r

ThermonMer

i believe the h&r is 1.4 F 1.4 R. the tein s is 1.6 F 1 R. yet, with teins, the front is still higher. all relative, i suppose.

its only obvious that the front is higher bc there is some front wheel gap. if you want a solid drop with springs - go with road magnets. its a good 2" all around. the rear may still be lower than the front, but the front wheel gap will be entirely negated, and it wont leave you thinking that it is an uneven drop.

is Road Magnets a reputable company? I've never heard of them.

I just wish the Teins didn't lower as much in the back so that the drop was even. oh well.

ThermonMer

from what ive gathered, road magnets are the second least reputable of the group to megan springs (which are like $100 bucks). the group being h&r, eibach, tein, and the above. that said, it doesnt necessarily mean that its a bad brand, just fewer ppl on the board have tried them.

PM rastaracr - hes one of the few that i know that had them. if you youtube 'road magnet lexus' you will find a vid of an install and drive by. road magnets truly look like a coilover job. its low as ****.

h&rs and road magnets are about 250-260, teins are 190, eibachs not sure, and megans 100. you could get yourself some megan coils for maybe around 500 or so. they dont have as bad as a reputation as megan springs. megan coils are known as one of the more affordable coils, yet reliable.

...and thats basically all i know when it comes to springs.
