Lowering an IS250 AWD
I'm the owner of an '07 IS250 AWD. I am interested in lowering my car in next few months.
Currently, no one has step up to the plate for making coilovers for the AWD's. So, here's a few newbie questions ya'll can answer for me.
1. Tein's H-Tech Springs 06+ IS350 on an '07 IS250 AWD? Possible?
2. Tein's CST Coilovers 06+IS350 on an '07 IS250 AWD. I know there design for the IS350 RWD, but I was wondering if I could use it on the IS250 AWD. I know the major difference in vehicles are one is RWD, and other is AWD. Are there anymore differences?
3. Or, should I stick to putting Elibrach, or Tanabe springs on my car? Until coilovers are avaliable for the AWD's?
Thanks in advance.

2. Coilovers for 250 and 350 won't fit AWD.
3. I think it is gonna be a while before coilovers are available for AWDs.

Is the ride on the Eibacks too rough? Just wondering cause been on the fence about which springs to use (but I just have an RWD) I know there's loads of people here on Eibacks and state the the ride is similar to stock?

Its sort of hard to make that call unless youve had multiple different springs (or been in a car with different springs). I have the Eibachs and personally, I dont think the ride is that bad, its definitely much stiffer but of course that is to be expected. Handling was vastly improved and the looks alone are worth it. Some people might think the ride is too rough with any spring, I dont think the Eibachs are bad, but then again I am coming from an EVO with coilovers on it and that didnt exactly ride soft!
