Does anyone know if you can swap in the gsf/rcf arms into an isf? Not just the bushings but complete arms

No. Won't work. They moved things around when the redesigned the front suspension. The ball joints are not in the right places to do this. I looked at it when we got the GS F.

Any update on tire wear for those who installed RC F bushings?

I guess Lexus engineers know who they are catering to when they engineer the life out of their otherwise great cars.

But seriously, to say that NVH is an issue with our bushings, you’d have to have a butt with the sensitivity of a seismograph!

As far as LCA bushings go, don’t forget, the USRS is the only bushing that eliminates AXIAL movement of the LCA, due to our thrust loaded design.

Rafi
So were there a lot of complaints of increased NVH with the RR R&T (Road & Track) 95a Race USRS? It looks like there's a 88a Street USRS now.

No doubt. Love my solid bushings, but they definitely transmit more high frequency noise to the chassis and sharp bumps have a completely different feel than before. And there's zero axial movement with these unless the aluminum is flexing.
