does any one know who the OEM suspension supplier for the 08 Lexus IS 250 was?

I had to get down and dirty and replace the rear brakes while i was home and noticed the rear shocks were tokito tokico units.

Tokico does most of the OEM shocks for Toyota/Lexus/Scion vehicles.

I thought KYB did the vast majority of them, with Tokico and Bilstein mainly supplying performance suspensions. Unless that changed recently.

But the IS does have Tokicos.

I saw these on an S10 Blazer not long ago. Bilsteins.

And the aluminum control arms on a C4 Vette had Alcoa markings.
