Sorry, but Tanabe DF210 springs for the GS and IS are totally different. Your sale is a bit misleading for the 3GS guys.


TDF112 - 2006-2008 GS
TDF125 - 2006-2008 IS

The TDF112 springs fit 06 up GS 300,350,430 thats what I had on my 06 IS350. The TDF 125 springs fit IS 250 not IS 350. I got this info from Tanabe website.

Either way he is saying...

He got springs that were made for a 3GS 06+ for his 2IS. Basically the springs are Tanabe DF210s for the 3GS. A handful of people do this to archive a lower drop compared to the DF210s that are made for the 2IS. My 3 friends with 2IS have done this.

Should look like this:




Thats an IS250, the front is a little higher then the rear BUT thats a good thing when it comes to rubbing. lol

Did you run into any rubbing issues w/ your 19's? Are the springs soft or stiff?
