Dropped it on Tanabe DF's. Stock height was just crazy high. Feels like I dropped it 4" hahaha.

- Ride quality is BAIRLY stiffer than stock / Very nice. Was glad as I did not want a harsh ride.

- Springs are progressive so toss it on the corners and they make a heck of a difference

Overall worth the cash! Good springs. Next up wheels and tires.

nice man! i feel the same way about the NFs... bairly stiffer than stock, but holy cow does it handle through the turns now.

yeah i have that too it look nice work good as well
all thank to the god OF JDM lol :bow:

god i want these springs soooo bad but im so scared im gonna rub with my rims.

I cut 3/4" off the bump stop to make sure they would not bottom. Other than that on stock rims I have never had 1 rubbing event. Who knows though with aftermarket wheels, different offsets & tire sizes...

Did you replace the shocks as well or just the springs? Also, do you have the sway bar installed? Did it take care of the roll you get when cornering when it was stock? I'm dying to this mod to my xD.

Hello, Just springs right now. They took care of the "ship at sea" rolling that the xd shows but could still be improved with the swaybar.

Rims almost ready "stock tc rims blasted & powdercoated dark bronze!"

Update, well after living with the springs for this long, I am not super happy with them. The rear spring rate rather stinks and is to soft. The rear sags a little which I find repulsive. Just not my cup of tea. Looking into either teins or eibachs.

Me too i'm not liking how the back side sits lower then the front just looking at the wheel gap it's really obvious.

Yea, I've noticed this on my NF210s but hey, I can't complain since I got the for free lol.

if your worried about rubbing get some 15's!

you didn't mention it, so tell me this. are the springs for a Yaris?

They appear to be for the yaris, not specific to the XD's increased weight. Same with the teins. Not sure about eibachs or TRD's.

i wonder cuz every xD I have seen using Yaris springs has droopy booty. the xD is a heavier car. the rear suspension crossbeam is not the same as a Yaris. I checked my neighbors Yaris 2D hatch and it's rear suspension is much smaller than ours. not even the same shape. so if you want to be low and do it right, I'd suggest to pony up for some RS-R springs( tucks tire) or even the coilover system they now have. pricey, yeah. proper fitment. absolutely. btw, I have the Sportivo setup on my xD. no droopy booty. this setup give the car a raked apprerance. I want to be lower( my xB1 is bagged with staggered Works) but it may not be right for my needs. So I'd at least check into it or call RS-R USA and try to get a set.
