It'll most likely fit, but we will most likely have to alter the spring rates to account for the difference in engine weight!
Hey thanks!
VitorrioS - That drop is just perfect in my opinion!! Not overdone, very tasteful and just makes the stance of the 2021 that more menacing without being over the top!! Great work and will be curious to see the response to question raised by macmaster. I vowed I would never install lowering springs as aftermarket items but darn this looks good

^^ Gotcha - So I guess given the lower count of IS500 being produced and how many of them would actually want to proceed with such springs, it wouldn't make a good business sense to develop new springs with a different spring rate for such a limited product....or would it?

Well, I wasn't going to lower another car with RS-R springs, so I am glad Eibach has come to the table. One bad experience was enough for me. I have had nothing but good experiences with Eibach so looks like I will go this route!

Its a long and drawn out story. I had them on my NX when I first got it. The drop was right, but the springs made terrible noises from day 1. Their customer service was no help and didn't offer any resolution.
I swore off the brand after that happened.

Sweet! When I get my IS500, if you are willing to install mine for free and provide a discount you can use my car as free advertisement. I live in SoCal and am #1 in line at the dealership.

Just got my paint correction, ceramic, and the bumper/headlight PPF completed last week...it looked great already, but this just makes the Infrared look all the more slick. Non-stop compliments on the car!

Looks like we'll go ahead and release the kit.
Part # E10-59-004-01-22.
This kit was used in the pre-facelift F-Sport, we installed to confirm ride heights and ride quality.
Official heights are -0.9” Front and -0.7” Rear. Very subtle drop and rides comfy (my personal vehicle, I'd be the first to complain).

Looks like the perfect amount of drop...I'm curious, did you guys see much settling over the years on the older cars? And have you confirmed if this will work for AWDs, as well?

As far as springs setting, ours are preset during production so if they do set, it is very minimal if not none.
