Is anyone on the board running these? I'm have several options that I'm considering for coilovers. Those being the BC Racing BR coilovers and the TRD Coilovers.

I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find any information regarding the spring rates nor levels of adjustment for the TRD Coils.
Someone help!

 

There's a thread pinned in the top of this section that tells you adjustment range.

And Google is your friend:

 

Thanks. I would also like someone's first hand knowledged of the coils..

 

Scion_Jon is running them...

 

also o8tC

 

are you looking for coilovers for handling purposes or slammage?

as far as drop on the TRD coils, scion_jon was baby tucking on stock wheels/tires,

and as for handling, the TRD coils have threaded strut bodies, meaning the lower you go, the less shock travel you have(and also changes spring rates in the process) which i really dont like about these type of coilovers.

 

if youre looking to slam, get raceland coilovers or just chop ur springs, either way ur handling will be f*cked

personally im thinking of h&r coils or cusco

 

Why would you suggest to anyone to chop their springs? That is the most unsafe and down right retarded thing you can do!

 

 

i would totally chop mine if i had a spare set of struts and springs or even coils and a different set of rims and tires i didnt care about!

 

I dont care at ALL about slammage. I looking for strict performance. At this point, I'm leaning HEAVILY towards the BC Racing BR coils. They seem to offer everything I want @ the right price point.

 

^^^thank god, i hate seeing people drop 1500-2k on coilovers then max the drop

 

I wanna make my little econobox handle amazing. That's all I care about..
Already got the Dan Gardner sway, gotta get the coils next!

 

also something else to think about is long term use,

i know BC will re-build their coils, but ive never heard of TRD coils being serviced or re-built

 

i am pretty sure trd coilovers are just rebadged progress coilovers, they are pretty much identical.

 

they are but his statement would be the same either way

 

they are rebadged.

I dont wanna slam my car anymore than it is. Dont wanna risk tearing a cv joint boot or ripping the oil pan out.

I scrape a lot as it is.

 

i have trd coiils and i love them, im lil higher than jon, but i wanna get a lil lower

 

mine are maxed...

 

Gahhhhhhhh. I'm jealous.
