Default FS: Road Magnet AWD Springs

Hey all,
Up for sale are Road Magnet Springs for the IS250. It's a pretty aggressive drop and looks pretty good. They have a little rust where the springs compressed. In all I put about 20 months and 14k miles on them. I attached a pic of my car with the springs - but my shocks are blown in the pic... stupid oem shocks.
$165 Shipped to the 48, extra for HI, AK, PR

did you have to get after market replacement camber kit because of the drop or could the oem camber kit work

No Camber kit. and I don't believe the IS has Camber adjustment unless the newer models changed. I am going to get my alignment for the first time. The toe is what will need to be adjusted. In my case, the toe went out when it dropped, so the inside of the tire was wearing. Not huge.

Thanks everyone!
Yeah, I had some additional wear on the inside of the tires but I didn't have an alignment done after installing the springs. I put it off because I was waiting to install new shocks and then forgot (i was waiting for aftermarket shocks). I'm putting on new tires at 29k (which seems to be the norm for oem tires)

Yeah, I really like these springs - they made the car feel and look great! I think these are the only springs that were designed with the AWD in the first place (But it seems that the RWD and AWD are pretty interchangeable with all the other makers - but Road Magnet sells these for AWD).
