Be careful when you guys buy wheel for the IS350 because you will need a lot clearance for the front break. Not all of them will fit. Don't order the wheels unless you know they will fit or else you have to end up paying restocking fees for the rims. Just go to the wheel shop and tell them just to put the rims only on the front 1st before mouting the tires on.
I will get a drop once the springs come out. Can't wait.
Front wheel pic:
Rear wheel. Notice that there're not a lot of room between the tire and fender. Nice....
A straight side pic to show you guys that the wheel and tires are flush with the fender. That took me a lot of research in here. Thanks for all the help in here
Rear pic. Notice the fat tire on the bottom?

Eibach Pro-Kit
I've been holding out but yeah, I've been the test fitter for Eibach for the IS350. One inch drop all around from the sports suspension. So for the regular suspension it should be about a 1.5 inch drop all around. No RSB yet, that'll be in a few weeks, they're still working on it. Anyway, the ride quality is really nice so far. I've only driven it from Eibach back to my house which is like 3 miles, so I haven't really tested it out. Production models should be out soon for the pro-kit. The Eibach R&D guy said they probably won't make a sportline kit. I told him that some of you guys would be interested in a coilover kit, but they really need to see more interest in a kit (people actually going to buy and not just saying they would buy it) .
EDIT: It's about a one finger gap in the rear and about a two finger gap in front.

Thanks to Clublexus 2nd Gen IS member "Yoshi13" for letting us use his car to develop this exhaust system! Jason also let us use his car in the past to develop the NF210 lowering springs that are also equipped on his car.
Jason was our R&D test car for our new exhaust system for the IS350.
Equipped with Tanabe Medalion Touring:
Shot 1 with the IS350 on the lift
Shot 2 with the IS350 on the lift
