Default Springs for the AWD?????

Has anyone found, heard or know of any springs compatible with the AWD model. I've searched and searched but every manufacturer that makes coils for the 250/350 only list it for the RWD.

Tein H-Tech's for the 350 work as well. I plan on getting these shortly since development of coilovers seem to be an eternity away....

RoadMagnet Springs are the only springs designed and made for the IS250 AWD. All the others will still leave you looking like a 4x4 since the awd is higher than all the rear wheel drive models. The Roadmagnet springs drop it 2" front and rear. I am running them with custom Vellano VSM 19" 3 piece wheels with 235/35/19 tires. No rubbing at any time.

thanks for getting back guys... but i'm up here in washington state. I'd be on that Tanabe offer if i were still living in cali. Anyway i heard from some shops up here that there is a good possibility that around the time the SEMA show comes up that some manufacturers should have developments for us AWD owners to debut. Just keep your fingers crossed.

BTW: i did have my AFS light go on so be aware.
BTW2: Does any one know how to get rid of this, or will the Lexus Dealership be able to fix this at my next service?

Thanks and Good Luck
