So I am trying to replace struts on my lexus is250. I ordered a set through 1A auto but they don't fit. When I called them they said I have the Sport Suspension package which i wasn't aware of. So a few questions

1. What is the sport suspension package2. Where do I find front and back assemblies to replace the stock ones?
3. How do I identify the sport suspension package for my knowledge?

Thanks for assisting!

Welcome to the Forum.

Just curious, how come they don't fit? I was under impression that all shocks and struts physically fit in as they all have the same design, just different internal valving for different package/trims (with the exception of AWD). When looking for suspension components you will soon find out that Lexus makes different shocks for different colours of IS models
Are you buying OEM or aftermarket shocks?

I suggest posting in Normal Threads as they typically get more traffic.

Look at post #57 here for dampers. PS - IS has shocks with coil springs. Not struts.
