Pic Request, IS 350 F Sport Springs H&R Springs
I tried to search, but I wasn't able to find good pics. I am looking for a pic of an IS 350 with stock 18s with F Sport Springs and H&R Springs. I am looking for better handling, and a lower (not slammed) ride height. Any pics would be great. Thanks..

i know at least of two that are running these setups:
- stonefan52: h&r springs and oem 18's, but he's got them on an is250.
- gemini1: f-sport springs and oem 18's, but he's got them on an is250 as well.
i'm not sure why you really need to see these two set-ups - and you have to see them on is350's. aside from engine and brakes, they're identical cars...
"do or do not, there is no try."

most is250s in california come with oem 18's.
both stonefan52 and gemini1 are in california.
do the math.
btw, the f-sport springs (iirc ffor the is350) are rebadged eibach pro-kits. the H&R's ride a little lower than the f-sport springs. a quick search on google can get help you find their respective specifications.

doesn't seem as low as I thought it would be? Some pics from other member with F-sport looks lower but probably just picture angle.

H&R rides nice, and has better performance than F-Sport, but you sacrifice ride height. I'm not sure what kind of roads you have to drive on in NJ. I scrape more often now on my front lip because of driveways and such, but it's what would probably happen with F-Sport as well. I'll post pics later on. H&R rides smooth, and my mom even commented it rides better than stock.

Drop was almost 1'' on front and 1.125" on rear, ok for me wouldn`t want to go any lower though I would prefer rear about .25" higher, Oh Well. Please excuse my *******y photography. I`m very pleased with both ride comfort and the improved handling(reduced body roll). I throughly enjoy driving my car, maybe a little too much, especially thru the canyon roads here in so. cal. it is just the right mix of power,handling and luxury. This is my first modded, rear wheel drive, auto. trans car I`ve owend since my first car, '71 chevy malibu, I`ve owned stock honda accords ever since, and still have my '97 accord as my daily driver.
