i dont race and dont really plan on it. i just want my dd to look and feel good. this is what im planning. let me know what you guys think. thanks.

trd springs/struts
hotchkis f/r bars.

thats all i'm planning for my suspension. i'll be on 18s.

 

For DD, TRD imo will be the best. Strut bars will help a tiny bit. Sway bars will improve the handling quite a bit but for a DD I don't see them being necessary. If you slice through traffic and take on/off ramps doing 70mph, I can see them being beneficial.

Check out the suspension sections, they have a lot of useful information.

 

s-techs > trd.

 

Save yourself some money and don't get the struts. You'll be fine on stock struts for a while. I've been on a Hotchkis drop for over a year on stock struts, I've even blown up my bump stops and the stockers are still truckin(before i get flamed, the bump stops were replaced). And get something lower then the TRDs. I love my Hotchkis drop. S-Techs are dope too but i don't like how the rear sits on those. Tanabe drop looks good.

and yea, get the TRD rear sway bar for a DD. It makes a night and day difference. Hotchkis front sway's gonna be too much of a pain to install for a dd.

 

i would recommend progress springs but thats just cause i have them. but i liked that its dropped at 1.8 in. all around!
