Default So here's the plan...

I'm going with the TRD drop. Can't afford coilovers right now, and I'm afraid everything else will be too low with the sh^%$$y roads here in CT. I'm planning on going with a set of Axis TC EVO 18x7.5 wrapped in Hankook K106 (225/40HR/18). What do you guys/gals think?

Well Iam running Hankooks 225/40/18 with TRD springs on my car and so far I haven't had any trouble with rubbing other than when it hits deep holes and going too fast over them.

+45... the back end is a little bit lower than the front end,I like it a lot but it would look a lot better if the front had the same drop,you can click on my profile to check out my car if you want!!!

Which color are you gonna get?

"the back end is a little bit lower than the front end, I like it a lot but it would look a lot better if the front had the same drop"

Thats why I'm planning on the Tein H.Techs, drops lower in the front.

I was gonna get the graphite finish with the silver lip, top right corner pic. above. I think it will look good against my SSM with tints. If anyone can photoshop this for me, that'd be great. I was also thinking of doing a +35 offset to push them out a little to even them up with the fenders. Any problems?
