Default trd lowering springs sag?

they are supposedly lower 1.25 all around. i am not sure if i want to get these. i was wanting maybe a 1.5 or 1.7 drop but after sag. i was wondering if the trds sag to 1.5 or 1.7. anyone have any pictures of the wheel gap?

the TRD are good springs i have them on mine and i would recomend them i mean it also depends on where you live.. i live in michigan and i can go to low cause in the winter ill be a damn snow plow but if u live in miami you can be sittin on the ground and have no problem ive heard good things about h-techs but TRD r good also so its a toss up
