all four struts blown out
So all four of my struts are toast...im running on tein s tech springs...should i even get new struts or should i just get coils and sell my springs?
if so, how does everyone like the TRD coils vs H&R?
Im not trying to drop a bunch of $$ though...it is getting close to xmas...you know how that goes

up to you really. If you feel like upgrading and dropping some dough get coils. but if you wanna save money I say just get aftermarket struts and shocks. I bought a used set(3,000 miles) of Tokico Blues and Tanabe DF210s for 400 bucks on here, def much cheaper then coils and a bit better then stock.

i'd probably go the route of coilovers, because after looking at a set of tokico or trd shocks/struts they're almost about the cost of getting some decently cheap coilovers...if you need them asap i'd go the cheap route of racelands to get you by until you can save up for what you want

I like my tokicos. I've had one blow on me so far, but I hit a dip doin like 60, bottomed out, flew up, came down, bottomed out again. Good thing the tokicos u can buy individually.

I've got a few suspensions you could look at buying if you wanted... Stock struts and springs, tein SSP's w/upper pillows... have the edfc for them as well and then have a 2nd set of air ride struts but would have to buy tank and management.
#11
not sure. seems like quite a few go with them. i've been back n forth between those, trd, or just saving and spending a bit more for coils cuz i dont see my rears lasting much longer from the weight in the hatch (3 subs, 2 amps, a battery, 2 tv's plus all of the wood for the box and wiring)

PMd for price on SSPs, info and price to 48912

If you plan on keeping the car for awhile, I would go with a full coilover setup. No point in buying new struts every couple of years. May as well just do it right once, and if the coilovers ever blow, they are rebuildable. You also get adjustability in both height and firmness. Can't go wrong.

If you want ride height adjustment, then coils.
