Vehicle Compatibility

Compatible with:

• 2016–2017 Lexus IS200t
• 2014–2015 Lexus IS250
• 2016–2021 Lexus IS300
• 2014–2021 Lexus IS350
• 2017 Lexus IS Turbo

Fits the XE30 chassis.

Not compatible with:

• Air suspension-equipped vehicles
• Vehicles requiring extreme suspension geometry changes

Always verify fitment before ordering.

Restore Proper Rear Toe

Lowering your suspension frequently moves rear toe outside factory specifications.

The Godspeed AK-156-A provides:

• ±3° rear toe adjustment
• Factory alignment correction
• Reduced uneven tire wear
• Improved rear suspension geometry
• Better vehicle stability

Correct rear toe is one of the most important alignment settings for maintaining straight-line stability and predictable handling.

Heavy-Duty Steel Construction

These rear toe arms are engineered for long-term durability.

Construction highlights include:

• Heavy-duty steel alloy
• Precision-welded construction
• Corrosion-resistant powder coating
• Performance adjustment mechanism
• Built for street and motorsports use

The durable finish helps protect the suspension components from rust and road debris.

Performance Spherical Bearings

Instead of factory rubber bushings, the AK-156-A utilizes spherical bearings.

Benefits include:

• Reduced suspension deflection
• More accurate alignment under load
• Improved chassis response
• Better rear suspension control
• Sharper handling during aggressive driving

Because spherical bearings are firmer than rubber bushings, some additional noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) is expected.

Improve Handling & Tire Life

Proper rear toe adjustment offers several performance advantages.

Benefits include:

• Longer tire life
• Better high-speed stability
• Improved cornering balance
• Increased rear grip
• More predictable handling

These improvements become especially noticeable after installing lowering springs or coilovers.

Direct Bolt-On Installation

The AK-156-A is engineered as a direct replacement for the factory rear toe arms.

Typical installation includes:

1. Raise and safely support the vehicle.
2. Remove the factory rear toe arms.
3. Install the Godspeed adjustable toe arms.
4. Set a preliminary toe adjustment.
5. Torque hardware to factory specifications.
6. Perform a professional four-wheel alignment.

Professional installation is strongly recommended.

Benefits After Installation

Properly adjusted rear suspension can provide:

• Improved rear stability
• Better steering response
• Reduced irregular tire wear
• More consistent suspension geometry
• Factory-spec alignment after lowering

Pros

• Fits 2014–2021 Lexus IS XE30 models
• ±3° rear toe adjustment
• Heavy-duty steel alloy construction
• Precision spherical bearings
• Corrosion-resistant powder-coated finish
• Direct bolt-on installation
• Excellent for lowered vehicles
• Improves handling and tire longevity

Cons

• Professional alignment required after installation
• Not designed for air suspension applications
• Spherical bearings increase NVH compared to rubber bushings
• Installation instructions are not included
• Toe adjustment alone does not correct rear camber; separate adjustable camber arms may also be required on heavily lowered vehicles

Final Verdict

The Godspeed AK-156-A Adjustable Rear Toe Arms are an excellent suspension upgrade for 2014–2021 Lexus IS200t, IS250, IS300, IS350, and IS Turbo models. With ±3 degrees of rear toe adjustment, heavy-duty steel construction, and precision spherical bearings, they provide the alignment flexibility needed to improve handling, restore suspension geometry, and extend tire life after lowering.

For Lexus IS owners building a street, autocross, or track-oriented car, the AK-156-A is a valuable addition to a complete suspension setup, especially when paired with adjustable rear camber arms.
