Uneven drop with springs on IS250
I installed some Road Magnet springs on my 250 rwd about a week ago.I noticed that the drop is uneven from one side to the other.It is about 3/8ths to 1/2 in lower on the front driver side and about the same on the passenger rear.I was wonderng if its typical to get an uneven drop on a is250 or if it is an issue with the springs.

Yes, it's typical for an uneven drop with lowering springs. Also, you should wait a little for the springs to settle down. It should take a couple of weeks or so depending on how often you drive. The best way to get the most even drop is through coilovers. Anyone else, feel free to chime in with more info.

I've seen maybe a 1/4 or less difference on other cars that i've owned and lowered in the past .Which was hardly noticeable but 1/2 in. on this car is noticeable.This is my first Lexus and I wasn't really expecting that much of a difference.Guess I'll deal with it or get coilovers.I wonder if I swap the rears if I can at least get it to even out on each side.
