You're still going to have plenty of body roll with any springs. Just go with the H-Techs if you don't want as much drop as the S-techs, then throw a strut bar on to further improve body roll.

Ok if the h-techs dont have much more body roll then other springs and they ahve to be better then stock..then i have narrowed it down to trd's and H-techs. I pretty much know what i need to on the trd's so for the H-techs all the pics i have seen they leave about a two finger gap front and back, thats perfect! But is that the settled height or right after install? Also i see most say you dont need new struts/shocks for the h-techs but the front drop is the same as hotchkis 1.7" and everyone rec.'s them for hotchkis but not h-techs, why? Also i already ahev the strut bar..didnt really notice anything but cosmetic appeal under the hood..i noticed a much bigger differance when i added the rear sway bar.
Looks like im going to order the h-techs tonight. Have one last question though, i read over on another forum that the h-techs use the cars weight to hold them in place and have a chance of coming out of place if the car is jacked up? Is this a myth or fact? I cant possiably see tein designing something that would do that.
i haven't heard that, and i think it's a myth. h-techs work just like any other spring. they're compressed inside the strut housing at all times. if anyone's came unseated, then it wasn't installed correctly. i've had my car jacked up and put on a lift dozens of times since installing the h-techs, and they stay seated just fine.
