ahhh.. so you went with the advans. good choice. i would've went with those too if i could pick any tire from their product line. i also would've went with 265 too. in fact, that's the size i wanted but sumitomo doesn't make a 265/35/19, so i settled for 255/35/19 instead.

Yeah I can tell...

Lets work together on getting you a proper dyno done on a Dynojet..
The techs I use know how to dyno a Lexus and hold the proper gear..

Honestly, neither can I...

That's why I am going to help him get some better dynos done on his IS250...

By looking at the torque numbers I can tell the wrong gear was used for the runs.

Our production set up for the IS250, will NOT work on the AWD...

The X-pipe runs into issues with the transmission mount and front drive shaft.

Sorry, no plans to make a different system for the AWD model.
