Just Installed Road Magnet Springs on my Breakwater Blue IS AWD PICS
I actually installed them 2 weeks ago but just haven't had the time to post pics. The ride is good but I get a vibration while accelerating as well as a vibration when I am waiting at a light. I am not happy about those issues but i guess ill just deal with it. The front and rear lips go in next week and I will throw some wheels on when i have time to make some. The last pic is the car settled.

Looks good, yea I just recently dropped my car on springs and over all I am happy, but I hate some of the subtle vibrations as well, (when around 65mph in my case). Which lips did you go with GFX?

I was actually quite pissed with the car after i did the springs. The different vibrations and it feels like the car does not roll as easily. My last car was a dumped navigator and I hated the ride so I spent more money to get a Lexus because of the ride and feel and then i pretty much take all that and throw it in the toilet. But it seems to be growing on me and the way it looks and handles kinda makes it even. My wife mostly drives it so i picked up a little something for me to drive.

I payed 260 shipped from there website. They seem to have been designed specifically for the AWD platform and I have heard a lot of good reviews about them. And i really have not seen a 2in drop spring for the IS unless you go coil overs. The car feels a lot tighter and its not bouncy but you can still tell a difference from stock. If you like a more luxurious ride, like stock, i would probably go with not so aggressive of a drop.
