TRD springs and Hothckis sways made driving straight feel like stock (smooth) and it squatted in the corners. I didn't think it could get any better then that.

Then I got the Hotchkis springs and to my surprise, the ride stiffness did not increase dramatically, but the handling did. It squats even better in the corners, and my lane changes feel quicker. However, I did end up having to move the rear seting from stiffest to middle to compensate for the increase spring rate of the hothckis springs.

now I have the Koni yellows up front and am messing with the adjustable stiffness on that until I find the perfect mix of ride quality and handling over the construction heavey roads here in Vegas.
