Default IS250 2014 RWD Aftermarket Shock/Strut Choices?

Sorry to be that guy, I've been looking for a few days now on here and other sources but I just can't seem to find much of a selection for my car.

Are there any aftermarket shocks for my IS250 2014 RWD?

Reason why I ask is I loved my bilstein setup on my FRS and hated coilovers.
I know majority of the people here are on coils but just wanted to see what my options were with shocks before I go coilovers.

Any good recommendations for aftermarket shocks? I want a good setup to tackle the ****ty roads of San Diego.
If it comes down to it I'll end up getting coilovers... but I'd like to see my options first. So far I'm just seeing coilovers and not really any shocks.


Sorry for being naive, I'm new to this platform and gathering information was easier on the ft86 frs forums than here. I've searched and searched but can't really find what I'm looking for.
Any help/advice is appreciated.


I hate my current stock setup, the car floats left/right during freeway speeds and is not comfortable at times. I just want a good DD, not looking to stance. At most go 1 inch lower.

I was researching the same thing for my IS350 RWD. I couldn't find anything aftermarket that support the AVS system. I remember a website listing some shocks, but they weren't AVS (for non F Sport, possibly)

I just decided to go with RSR Half Down's on the stock shocks. Whenever the shocks go, I'll have them replaced with OEM.

Thanks for the suggestion, I know quite a couple of coilovers that are exceptional for my IS250 RWD 2014 but I'm looking for shocks.

Might buy F Sport shocks since its the only thing I can find.

I've had too much trouble with coilovers in the past and found shocks to be much better performance wise which is why I'm looking for shocks and not coilovers.
