I need some help....im plannig on putting a set of 17in rims om my car, but i want it lowered 3 inches....is this possible with just springs? Id rasther stay away from the expensive coilovers so i can put my money into other parts of my car. Does anyone know of a set of springs that will lower my xB 3 inches????

That's not gonna happen with springs, unless you plan on cutting them.

yeah, i was hoping noone would tell me that, but your prob right...
would cutting them ruin the integrety of the srpings....would they be unsafe?

yes

screw it man, just take your springs out!!! it'll give you a NICE 4" drop and the most amazing handling you've ever seen!!! YEAH RIGHT!!! if you like to bouncey bouncey bouncey..... Don't cut your springs bro. Do it right. Coilover or airbags. It's more expensive, but WELL worth it!

ok ok...well, anyone know of some good springs to drop 2 inches? i gatta get lowered soon lol...ill get the coilovers end of july

Hello,


I bought some goldline springs from Bill Turner (Scionspecialties.com) Look on the website you will find him. He has great prices, great service and fast shipping. Springs have lifetime warranty and 2" drop is only $189.00. Plus there is install directions on the board as well! Bill is very helpful and a good friend to a lot of people on this site.

Cander, thanks for the props, your going to love your alarm also. Bill

I must also give props to the Goldline springs.
Only one person to get them from in my book!
Bill @ Scionspecialties!

get REAL coilovers(not ground controls) and u might be able to hit 3"....

I ordered cusco coilovers and they should be here tomorrow or saturday so i'll let you know what three in drop looks like. :wink:

Tanabe DF210 baby! 2.5" drop for me all around =)

:shock:

If you want Goldline springs, see Bill. Wait, where did I see/hear that before? Anyway, see Bill, he's a good dude looking out for fellow Scion owners.

(And I'm not just saying that cuz he used to live out here in the Bay Area, its cuz he's bigger than me and can really put the hurt on me.)

I'm just curious...did you actually measure that, or are you guessing? Because Tanabe rates them at 2.2"/2.0"
