GS300 and GS350 Suspension
I have found a company that makes a lowering kit for the AWD GS350 and i wanted to know if they would work on the GS300. Do both models have the same suspension set up or are they different. Any information would be very helpfull.

If you really did find a company that makes a lowering kit for the AWD you should rename the post. There shouldn't be any suspension difference between the GS300 and GS350 AWD models. There are tons of AWD owners that are waiting for an official lowering kit specified for the AWD models. Please reply with the manufacturer and part number. Ideally, a link to the site.

I found a AWD lowering Kit for us 300 and 350
I have posted a thread last week about AWD lowering springs. Well i got a hold of the guy and they are here. He has AWD gs350 springs avialable now for about $260 i believe. The AWD gs300 spring will be avialable in about 2 to 3 weeks and they also are $260. the company website is www.roadmagnet.com You can also check out some of the IS250 thread cause he has down work on them. Well i have the AWD 300 and will be ordering them in mid fed. I hope this helps everyone out who might be looking.

never heard of this company before.
their description for the IS 250 (and presumably for the GS 300/350 when it is available): These springs were developed for the AWD version but work good on the standard model as well.
sounds too good to be true...i don't know about this one. my understanding is that the springs or suspension is different (which is why you have vibration problems when you slap on GS lowering springs on AWD). so if they custom designed springs for AWD, will using these springs on regular GS have vibrations then? food for thought/discussion

i have the vibration issue with RWD springs on my AWD.. one of the members here told me it has to do with the position of the halfshafts and the angle, and my installer told me the similar thing. at this point, i'm not really sure if the springs designed for AWD will make any difference. i'm not an engineer nor mechanic at any means, but my total speculation is that lower you go, more prone to vibration. like it was mentioned here numerous times, it could be hit or miss..
