IS250 AWD owners, what suspension setup do you have?
When I did a search on the forum, I found that some ppl say that the eibach springs made for IS250 RWD will fit on AWD and some others say that they won't fit on AWD model. Also, some says shocks will not fit, and others say they will. I don't know who's right or wrong, so the best way to find out would be seeing who has what kind of suspension setup.
Can you AWD owners post your suspension setup?

hey mc,
for my awd250, i am running tanabe nf210 for the is350. the actual part number is tanabe TNF113. my installer didnt have any problems with fitment. its been roughly 8 months, so far so good. the ride quality is just a tad harsher then stock, but otherwise, very well balanced. hope this helps, i took this pic this morning.

Aren't the tanabe springs a bit too harsh compared to eibach prokit?
If you were able to use IS350 springs on your AWD, that means any springs made for IS350 should work for our IS250 AWD as well?

Probably not too harsh. The AWD is the heaviest of all the ISx50 by a pretty big margin. If the springs will work on a 350, they'll be a bit softer on the AWD.

hey mc,
i have yet to ride on eibachs, so i cant compare them. tanabe's nf series are tuned to ride like stock. like i said previously, the ride is just a tad harsher but still very comfortable. i certainly cannot tell you that all springs for the is350 will work on a 250awd. tanabe now makes springs specific to the rwd250. the nf's are a great compromise between ride and handling. good luck.
