What size sway bar does my is250 f-sport model come with?
Hey CL
I am curious to know what size my f-sport model is250 sway bar size is? I know it is not the 19mm rear like the aftermarket f-sport blue sway bar. My stock sways are black but is it the same 15mm stock or the 17mm the isf would have since the f-sport model cars handle better than the oem isx50.

It is black small one similar to the stock one (not sure if they are the same). I know this because I just replace my IS250 F Sport 2012 sway bar with the F Sport accessory sway bar today. This is by far the BEST mod to me because and I can not stop smiling driving my car now. I can take high speed corner without body roll, less tire noise at high speed corner, steering wheel is so much more accurate, the road feel is good... just damn awesome.
For handling, yes, the F Sport factory definitely handles better than OEM. It has slightly stiffer spring/shocks than OEM. I believe 0.4 lower in front as well. However, the F Sport spring/shocks combo outperform the F Sport package in term of handling.
In term of HANLDING, I personally tested these with both my cars and in my opinion, i think that:
2012 F Sport IS250 > 2006 IS 350 OEM
2006 IS 350 with F Sport Springs/ F Sport shocks > 2012 F Sport IS250
2012 F Sport IS250 with Eibach lower springs + F Sport rear sway bar > 2006 IS350 with F Sport springs/ F Sport shocks
Will test soon and my hypothesis would be : 2006 IS350 with F Sport Springs/F Sports shocks + F Sport rear sway bar outperform all above settings.
