Default Q:+pics on TRD Springs...

Just woundering if after some time if the car will get any lower because i have had my car on trd springs for about 4 months now and every month it looks to be getting lower to me like the stock shocks are getting worn out or what not. i thought this wasnt supposed to happen with the trds! any thoughts? should i get the trd schocks too?

Its not the shocks. The springs settle in over time. I have had mine with stock struts for a few months now, here is how they finally settled (I love them so far):

I agree with ^^^^^^^^^

The springs do enjoy setting a bit. The struts have NOTHING to do with how the car sits, they only act as dampers while the cars suspension moves up and down. You will notice their wear and tear if you car rides increasingly rough.

I wouldn't worry at all, and go enjoy your nice lower ride.
