Default Lowering springs question???

I was looking into getting springs and heard that Tanabe DF210 springs off a 2006 GS430 fit the 2006 IS350. Can please someone help and please confirm with me before I purchase them. Also hows the ride and is there anything negative about them. Was thinking about roadmagnet springs as well. Any input will help guys thanks!

While I am aware that the 3GS Gs350 springs fit on the 2IS chassis, I am not too certain if the GS430 springs will fit. The struts may in fact be interchangeable, however I wouldnt reccomend running the springs.

The GS430 is the v8 variant of the 3GS chassis. Because of this the spring rate may be higher to compensate for the weight.

What is your goal with lowering the car? How many miles are on your current struts?

i know you want to get springs but i think it would be a better idea to look in the classified section and buy some used coilovers they will perform so much better and you wont have to mess with your stock suspension
