Alright guys…easy as the subject of this thread

So far I have h/r springs on stock shocks, which I love cause the ride is soft…my ex-gf damn near fell asleep in my car on our way back from a trip, that's how soft it is


Anyway, I have Nitto Invo tires, 255/45/r18 in the back, 225/45/r18 in the front, what are some items other than a sway bar I can buy to improve the handling on the car? I was thinking of coilovers but I don’t want to give up the ride comfort. Handling is very important to me, I love taking those turns

 

sway bars

 

^agreed. get both front and rear as you have the 250.

 

well..you don't really need to front sway
just get the rear sway and drop it

 

Why would you not need the front on a 250? It increases the stiffness by like %50 with the F-sport set-up.

 

I read that sway bars wont even make a noticeable difference during daily driving but will help alot on auto-x... i haven't done autox yet but i do have intentions, got any recommendations for a good sway bar?

 

^that is correct....on the 350, there is only a 6% difference. I have the 350, so I did not buy the front. if I had the 250 then I would have bought it.

 

In my opinion, you heard wrong. get the fsport front and rears.

 

So its better for the 250 w/ isf fronts and rears..awesome! thanks fellas I appreciate it. What do you guys think about the tires..keep the 255s in the back and 225s in the front?

 

I got the strut bar and it stiffens up the steering..esp when making a turn.

 

I demand every 2 IS to get F-Sport Rear Sway. if ur a 250 rwd then both front and back IMMEDIATELY!

 

Does it help w/ body roll? What bar is the one that also lets you keep the engine covers? I dont want to have my garage full of stock lexus parts lol



I love you guys!

no homo.

 

that no homo line lol it's from a movie right?

 

lol no, lil wayne...god i love having one of my friends work at the lexus dealer as a tech, half price on oil changes and discounts on whatever parts i want. I'll be asking him to check how much for the isf front and rear bar.

What can you tell me about the strut bar? Will it help on body roll?

 

don't bother with the strut bars, they are for looks. Unless we had a macpherson suspension, then strut bars might help a little. regarding tires, keep the stock size, just get stickier tires.
