Default Lexus GS450h KYB EXCEL shocks

Hi, I have a 2007 Lexus GS450h. My car mount next shocksreferences:

FR - 48510-30730 (Replaced by:48510-80428)
FL - 48520-30180 (Replaced by: 48520-80175)
RL - 48530-30680
RR - 48530-30680

Are the KYB Excel G or another
shocks compatible with my car?

Thanks in advance,

Many people have stated in this forum that the GS350 and GS450 share shock absorber geometries. So anything that you find that will fit a 2007-11 GS350 will fit the 450h suspension wise. I'm trying that wisdom out next weekend when my KYBs Just a Gas shocks come in.

Bluetheron, did you had any luck with your KYB shocks replacement on your GS450H and if so can you let me know the front & rear KYB shocks model #?

Default Lexus shock absorbers adapting from gs350 to gs450h

Please can you inform if the shock absorbers well fit for the GS450h.

I have similar issue with my Lexus gs450h for the rear shock absorbers....

This is the second 3rd gen GS I’ve replaced shocks on. First time I went KYB aftermarket, second time I got KYB OEM.

I may be crazy, but get the OEM ones. Rides so much better. Admittedly the first GS had bridge stones and the current one has Continental but I don’t think that would be enough to justify the difference in ride quality
