i have a xB and a xA that i want to but some springs on, but i am not to sure what some good ones are for a good price. cn anyone out there point me in the right direction

I'm not well versed on the xA, well, or the xB either for that matter, but for the xB I would go w/ either Goldlines or Tanabes.

i have tanabe df 210's on my xa and i absolutly love them.

i ordered some from ptuning.com 147 shipped.. call up the number and tell them ur from scionlife.. they go for 260 last week they were on sale..

I have Goldlines, and they are awesome! I would go with Goldlines.

P.S. Did I mention Goldlines! :lol:

i was gonna do goldlines..but the lower the drop for me the better..

The perfect springs would have to be the RS*Rs for the xB and xA!! Great ride and a perfect drop! You can't go wrong with the RS*Rs. :D

i was gonna do goldlines..but the lower the drop for me the better..

Tanabe DF210s then. Either choice will be a good one, Goldlines or Tanabe.

I have the Goldlines. They look great, but they make too much noise.

remember that the drop on an xA is not the same on the xB. Unless specified by the manufactuer. :shock:

they are in my room waiting to be installed in the spring. and since there seems to be no signs of snow they might go on sooner

i have the Sprint Springs with the 2' drop and they are pretty good...not too bumpy...good springs...

Dustin, you/ve seen my ride ... Gold-Lines are the way to go. I got mine from Stylis, but I am sure someone can hook you up with a GREAT ScionLife deal. (that's a hint for you Gabe ... LOL)

Really, you will love the Gold-Lines.

i'd say tanabe's but if u want a lil better ride get goldlines. either way great stuff.

that's all i needed to hear :D

to the ppl with lowering springs.........how long did the stock shocks last with aftermarket springs?

:lol: The goldline springs are for sale in the Scion Central website already. ( www.stylis.net ) :D

The RS*Rs are a premium spring that handle great in the corners and have the most comfortable ride I have had. :)

I thought I needed struts, but learned that it was my tires that were bad. So I am still on stock struts with the RS*Rs(2in drop) at 33,000 miles on the car. Hope this helps. :)

Springs are like opinions these days. Look at the pics, review the opinions, and pick what you think is best. Almost everyone's going to say what they have is best.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
i'm recommending a setup i dont have. so my opinion isnt very biased at all.

red hot xa i could not remember what you were running on yours. thanks all for the advice on what to get.

Oh my god... the spring gives you better then stock ride quality and the keep the scion flater in the corners....and the drop is amazing.
I would definatly say go with the rs-r's

ANYONE, know about this megan racing set they sell on e-bay...

The price is great and I LOVE the orange... to match my RS1... but are they worth a damn.

My bud swears by the TANABE's. He told me today how his friends went with the megans and had sever car sag in about a yr after install.

I was gonna buy some this week and was curious.

Thanks for any info.

I'd be more inclined to go with the TRD setup. The struts and springs may not lower the car as much as the other kits, but these are made by Toyota - specifically designed and engineered for Scion. I'm coming from a strictly performance standpoint on this one. It may not look as pretty, but TRD suspensions have been proven to besome of the most effective out there...

If I'm gonna go for a full setup I'd go with the JIC FLTA2's

Technically, TRD suspension parts are not "made by" Toyota. They are manufactured for Toyota/TRD by other companies such as Eibach, H&R, and Tokico. (I'm not sure exactly which companies manufacture the xA/xB parts, does anyone know?)

Then again, not even your stock suspension pieces are manufactured by Toyota. For example, I believe that the stock shocks are made by KYB.
