Default Lowering the ISC ?

Hey guys I'm planing to lower the ISC with just springs.

Is there any springs that someone recomends and how much of a drop
I what something that's not to low but fills in the wheel gap ?

And where is the best vendor on clublexus to get them from !

Thanks guys

How many miles do you have on your Vert? if you have alot of miles you might just want to get some coilover lowering shocks and you can adjust how low or high you want. Are you getting wheels too? Check all the venders and send them a pm asking for price.
Here is mine on BC BR coilovers.

If you're looking to just drop the car on springs I definitely say h&r springs. Drop is nice and still feels oem.

Low milage that's why I was guessing just springs.
Untill they go bad then will consider them.

Ok good some one else will have to help you with what kind of springs. There is lots of info on springs in the suspension section.

Hey Drone, I love the look of your IS-C and wanted to know some details of the suspension set up that you used.

From what I have seen, you're using stock struts with IS250 H&R springs? I have a 2010 IS250C and currently have stock rims (17") but was planning on upgrading to 19" Work rims.

Does your car rub with that set up? And do you think I would need struts if my car has around 87k miles on the odometer? Lastly, what were the tire specs that you have chosen?

Sorry for all the questions, I just want to knock this out instead of starting a new thread xD.
