Default Coilovers RWD AND AWD

so i have a AWD lexus gs and i was wondering if RWD coilovers work for it as well? also could anyone list me a couple of good set coilovers so i know which to look about. I know tein comfort sport coilovers are a good set as they provide better handling and aggressive look yet at the same time keeping the comfort of the ride. any new opinions would be greatly appreciated thx.

RWD coils will not work...

I think BC is the only company that makes coils for the awd. Im sure the awd members can chime in.

agreed the BCRs are a great coilover for the price, i have them as well. Like said though, RWD is different than the AWD. the rears will work but the fronts for the AWD have a bracket at the bottom of the strut that the RWD GS does not have.

you can check the 3rd gen classified forums but you have to make sure the BCRs are for the AWD GS. if you cant find any, contact Circuit Motorsport. Thats who i purchased mine from, they are a vendor here on CL.

We do carry the AWD coilovers and they will only work for the AWD, the front shocks are specific to the AWD models.
