Are the Bilstein any "better" performance-wise than stock O.E. IS-F Shocks that come with the car?

ORRRRRR are they even spec'd for the IS-F to begin with? Im figuring that since the F-Sport Accessories are only for the 250/350, that have samller (V6) engines, then the rating on both will not accomodate the much heavier V8 of the IS-F? Right? Spring rating and Shocks will not be able to handle the heavier load?

Correct!!

Technically speaking, nothing related to F-Sport Performance Parts for IS250 / IS350 were made to fit or work on the IS-F...

The only thing the F-Sport Performance Products and IS-F share are the "F" in their titles..
