I was wondering if anybody lowered their IS. I am not sure if I should go w/ eibach, tokico, TRD, or another one.

it depends on what kind of drop you want...

No, nobody has ever dropped their IS....

What are you looking for? Just looks, handling. How low do you wanna go?
IMO, I think Eibach and Intrax provide a really great ride, but only Eibach only brings you down an inch. Intrax will bring you 1.25" lower.

Coilovers are kool too. I have the TEIN Flex and love them!!

just take a look in the forums here and find out whatcha want.

jus go w. tein s-techs =) but be ready to face the word *CHAMBERING* and buying new tires often

Actually, the word is "Camber". With any drop, you will have to have the car re-aligned. Camber basically how the tire sits on the ground. With a drop, a negative camber will happen. It is fixable to a point. If you super slam your car, camber cannot be fixed and you'll be buying tires every 5000 miles or so. A 1-1.5" drop can usually be saved. You should be OK with TEIN S Techs...
