yes, i have searched and didnt get the results that i was hoping for.

what i'm requesting are pics of xb's dropped on either factory or aftermarket rims. also can you list what kind of springs how much drop, and cost??
sorry, seems like i'm bein a bit picky but i dont know what i want to go with for drop. i was lookin at the rsr springs, but i think i want a bit more drop in the rear (2.0 front 1.2 rear)

Thanks everyone,
Jim

Jim,

Noticed you were looking for some input on suspension. My xB has the TRD Japan spring which is a little over 1.5" along with the TRD Japan Waydo shocks. Recently I have just added a TRD rear sway bar which made a huge difference. I commute on the freeway everyday so I pulled the 19's off and went back to the stock set up.

I have some pretty good shot of the car with both sets of wheels but I do not know how to attach pictures. Hit me back and I will see if figure it out.

need everyones opinion here. i plan on putting 4 10" rockford fosgate p3 subs in the rear hatch. I have seen a bunch of xb's dropped but the rear sags with alot of audio equipment. what i'm lookin for is something that will give me a nice drip but stay level with all the subs in the rear.

any feedback, please post.

sorry, i have no pics, but to let you know, i have hotchkis front and rear sways and hotchkis springs (coils) and i am way pleased by the performance and drop. got 225-40-18s which are a _____ to get clean (meaning they still rub,) but when i do , it will be the ride i want. got to trim a little metal. drop 1 5/16" front - 1 5/8" rear. corners like a mutha, stiff enough cause of the 225's and not 215's.

the pics of the xb above would be just the opposite of what you are thinking. you would want to RAISE the rear.. better put, not drop it so much. but dude you got to drop the front. saw a guy in alabama a few days ago, front raised, back dropped, i mean enuf to slam the pavement. spark everywhere. but to address the front pitch that much higher than the rear.... no way. that makes abso-frigin'-lutely no sense. i can't believe its gonna drop 1 or 2 inches.

Here's a comparison with goldlines (props to Bill for the install). The measurements are directly after install........before the springs have settled (takes a couple weeks for them to settle completely......then it's right around 2" all around).
