Hey, CL. Doing some research before making the jump to lower my IS350. Heard somewhere that lowering car changes the angle of the drivetrain which would eventually cause issues on tranny or differential? Now, I know drivetrains are affected greatly when a vehicle is lifted, so a drivetrain kit is usually needed to compensate for the change in angle from the original design. Just not sure how much it affects a vehicle when lowered. To those who have lowered their IS, have you had drivetrain issues or not even a factor for 2IS at all?

i heard it only affects AWD variants

RWD is fine

There's a lot of talk in the past about awd and lowering it,,

Manufacturers have slack built into the driveline in RWD vehicles (driveshaft) to allow for suspension articulation. So matter the angle of the vehicle, you'll be fine.
