Default Will BC--R-02BR coilovers fit 2006 GS430 ?

Hello everyone after much research I was unable to find an answer of wether or not the BC-R Racing coilover BC-R-02 BR which is listed as fitment for 2006-2013 is250 would fit a 2006 GS 430? I think I need BC-R21 BR as mentioned by another post but not exactly sure. In that post the retailer said R-02 but manufacturer said R-21. Pretty sure they installed R-02 and fit well on the rear but too low on the front. The post was never followed up on and I couldn't find any other information. Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated... thanks in advance.

That GS430 is a a 3rd gen. You need R-02

With a slightly stiffer spring rate IMO

Thanks for your time and the response. Okay the BCR-02 BR will fit but will they be too low on the front and rub the inner wheel wells? Has anyone installed this series of coilovers in a 2006 GS430 ? What was the result? What stiffness of spring to be used? Much appreciate any thoughts or experiences.

They will not be too low. I would recommend a 14/10 setup with that car.

You can adjust the ride height.. I slammed mine on 4gs f-sport 19s and rubbed in the front with oversized tires and setting the ride height dumb low. 14/10 with swift springs is what I would go with.
