so I have the tein S and I hit to many driveways .... so I am trying to find a happy medium .... I am think of the TRD even thou there isn't much of a drop. Also do you have to do struts and shocks to do the springs?

so like you think the TRD's 1.5 inch would be better?
and you have to get new struts and shocks?

awesome breakdown ronny..

tc soe:
put some boards down between the wheel mounting points of the lift so its flat rather than going over humps, know what i mean?,(if its the style lift im thinking about)

groundforce:
trd drop is 1.25, you'll have some nasty wheel gap (imo)
i think eibach springs are the best, personally, (i got them) but they drop the car about 1.4 the rear of the car naturally settles lower so the front looks like it has a little more gap. ( i also got 2 12"s in a 70 lb box so that also makes the rear a lil lower) i think h-techs really have a great balance with 1.7 front and 1.5 rear or something like that, s tech is TOO low (imo of course)

I'm on the market for springs, so which of these would be the best for a comfortable ride and low enough (But i dont want to scrap driveways): TRD springs or the Tien S Techs?
