Default Eibach Lowering Springs

I just found someone selling used IS250 Eibach springs. He only wants $40 for them. He says they've been sitting around for awhile and only used them for about 1000 miles before he sold the car. Should I go for it? Anything I should look for on it to make sure its in good condition? I have an IS350 by the way.

Sounds like a good deal, most used ones I seen go for $100 but everyone said Eibach springs drop it too low.

I say go for it! From what I've heard is that the Eibach 250 springs gives a lower drop than the Eibach 350 springs. A lot of 350 owners got the Eibach 250 springs because of this. Ride quality will diminish a bit (slightly bumpier) but will gain better handling.

baypistol, nice 600RR.. I miss mines a lot

sounds like a good price. Ive been trying to sell my eibach 250 springs for a while now for $90 shipped. They are a great spring. Ive had s-techs on my is350 also and they were to soft and the ride seemed to float. As for the eibachs, the ride was firmer than stock but definatly comfortable for daily driving.
