Default anybody with a full trd setup?(shocks,springs/rear sway)

with the stock 17's? i really havent gotten to see a picture of what the drop looks like with the shocks AND the springs. ive heard it drops it a little bit more than just the springs on the oem shocks.

also, whats the ride feel like compared to stock? i just want an idea before i order these. if anyone can reccomend me anything better in the 700-900$ range that would be awesome.

i use to have trd struts/shocks and springs and the ride was nice it's alot more stable feeling over stock. the only reason i changed out the springs was because of the wheel gap with the stockies.... then sold the struts too because i want tokico's.
