Tein S-Tech springs or H&R springs for 08 IS250 AWD
Hey guys I searched in here but I read mixed things about S-techs fitting on the IS250 AWD. So my ? is do the s tech springs fit the is250awd?
Also are H&R springs better or Tein-stech? I am looking for overall comfort, drop and quality. I know i wont get the stock comfort but which one is better outta the two.. Thank You

I have H&R and like it. Can't really go wrong either way, since the drops are so similar. Tein will give the aggressive look with the lower front end, while H&R will be a more even drop. I went H&R because I was already scraping, and with Teins I can only imagine it would be worse. You'll be happy with either way you go with a dropped car FOSHO!

I was thinkin the same. I measured the gap with my fingers and its the same for front and rear. I was inclining towards H&R since its specifically made for AWD. Thanks for the input tho..

djsai are you aware of this vibration issue w/ awd? i'm currently dropped on f-sports which is a mild drop (since I have to deal with Canadian winters here) and I'm having vibrations when in gear at a complete stop. Just thought I'd share this tid bit so you can research this before your final decision.
Cheers~

Also curious to find out if this AWD version of H&Rs will eliminate the vibration issues with the AWD 2IS when lowered.
