Default Coilover Suggestions.

Hi Club Lexus Members,

I'm pretty sure this has been asked already but I was wondering if I could still get some recommendations for coilovers that would fit an Lexus IS250 with AWD.

Thanks !

Members here seem to lean either Megan EZ coilovers or BC Racing coilovers for the IS 250 AWD. I prefer the BC Racing coilovers with the Swift Spring upgrades (which carry a small premium over the standard BC Racing coils) whenever I get around to fitting coilovers onto my AWD IS.

I'd recommend taking a bit of time to research this before grabbing coils. There are issues with the AWD IS when you lower it, CV boots ripping, vibrations/wobbles from the CV axle, and vibrations at a stop. Some members can go low without any issues, while others are reporting the aforementioned issues when they lowered their IS with AWD.

I've been researching this issue (through reading many threads on CL) since owning my IS 250 AWD and (it's been a little over two years) it comes with lots of caveats.
