ISx50 Lowered on H&R Sport Springs
I recently looked to lower my car to add a more aggresive/sporty/tuner look to my car and while I was researching I realized that I wanted to maintain driveability. I did not want to slam it (or at least not yet ) because this car is my daily driver and the roads are not perfect so I didn't want to ruin my bumpers and wear out my tires faster and all those things that come with getting coilovers. I also didn't want to do any fender work such as roll my fenders or take out the fender lining or any of that. So it came down to H&R vs Road Magnet Springs and I chose these. I have no problems with rubbing and to be honest, the ride quality is amazing! i strongly recommend these springs if you like this drop, the ride quality is very similar to stock, you don't lose that Lexus ride quality with these springs. I love these springs and also if i chose to get a front lip for my car then it will hang perfectly and wont make me touch the ground. Anyways,
So for anyone wondering what kind of drop H&R Springs do for your car, here's my 2is dropped on H&R's with before and after pics. Feel free to let me know your opinion
H&R Sport Springs Specs: Drop: 1.4" front / 1.3" rear
And for those of you wondering what my setup is:
19" Ruff Racing R281 with Toyo Tire Proxies 225/35 all around (unfortunately not staggered )
and the rims stretched the tires out so they may even look like a thinner profile

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that, yes I am still on my stock shocks. And no it's a RWD 2007 is250 and I have about 105,000 miles on it. My wheels aren't staggered because unfortunately I couldn't get the rims I have in a staggered set which I'm kinda bummed out about but oh well.

Good choice! I love them on my car. They lower your car just enough to still make it practical as a daily driver. I'm on 19s, and I'm able to still make full u-turns with out rubbing. I too run mine with stock shocks.

Looks 100x better OP. I put these on my 07 is250 awd about a month ago and I'm also running the stock shocks. I think the ride quality is great and very close to stock just a bit tighter around corners but just as smooth. I would recommend these to anyone that is considering a new set of springs
