Does the GSF/RCF Lower control arm bushings fit?
I saw it fit in the 2Gen IS/ISF threads and it helped the inner tire wear. I just got new tires and would like to install these before the alignment. Does it fit our 3Gen IS?
These are GSF/RCF specific bushings, higher durometer (hardness) than IS250/350.

I see no reason why it wouldn't fit. Unibody between RC350 and RC-F should be the same, and if the 3IS uses the same bushing as an RC350, then theoretically an RC-F bushing should fit a 3IS. I would buy them and simply return them if they don't fit.

I have the bushings coming in from Japan...looking forward to being a bit more sure-footed.
Reducing inner tire wear would be nice too.

I have the GSF bushings installed. 100% bolt-on replacement. The version with negative 0.30 caster correction also got my caster back into factory spec after lowering. Handling is noticeably improved. Also get the exact Lexus factory manual toe specs, don't go by the alignment rack recommendations, they're a little off.

Not sure exactly, not too low. One finger gap in front?
Increased caster isn't necessarily an issue, it increases straight stability. (The RRRacing bushing increases caster)
Lowering brought it into the alignment racks 'red zone' (too much caster), and the negative bushing brought it back into factory specs (green zone)..

thank you, I’m looking at lower the car .8 in the rear and 1.4 in the front. I’m going to try the O offsetting bushing

I bought figs 90 about a month ago, no complaints. Worth the 360$ for peace of mind. Took me less than 30 mins to install.
new rims and tires so I’m looking out if inner tire wear is still present in a few thousand miles.

I recently did an alignment only because I got new tires (switched to A/S tires from Summer’s) everything was fine.

I just got my RCF LCAB and brackets. It took like an hour to put them on, and boy does this small mod make a huge difference in driving!
The car is so much more stable at highway speeds, and much better behaved while braking. I do not notice any NVH at all.
I can't believe that Lexus didn't put these bushings in from the get-go.
This is a great way to spend $80. Recommended.
