Default GOT Coils? Show us!

I own 2008 Lexus IS250 AWD and I have hard time finding Coilovers for sale. I would like to see different brands and how they look like on your ride.

Post your rides here:


This is recent picture of my Lexus. I need to delete this gap and height.

Coilovers are adjustable height so how they look on a car is how the owner wants them adjusted. Also, there's a suspension category that contains all this information.

Nice looking pic tho

^ fyi, there's something called establishing a sense of community in the 2is section.

to the OP: as the majority of the 2is's here are RWD, you'll find that the lowered right heights achieved w/ coilovers will differ greatly from that of the AWD variant due to drivetrain tolerances. that, and there are only a very small handful of manufacturers that make coilovers for the AWD 2is. try hitting up Circuit Motorsports (CL sn: CircuitMS) for more information and assistance.

best of luck.

Most coilovers are adjustable, so "pictures" will all look the same, it just depends on the member's adjustment. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Check this thread instead.

Thank you so much for all your help. I wanted to go with "Stance" but I guess I will go with "BC Racing". Hopefully we can still see more Rides posted!!
