Now that is has been a while the springs must have settled in and the car should be lower. from the pictures I see almost no difference especially in the front. Can you post up close ups of each wheel and the gap.

Also People post up your TRD springs, I did not want to start a new thread about it. I know there are better ones but I live in NE where snow is an issue and tons of really tall speed bumps!

thanks a lot!
In your opinion is it worth the money?
What would you estimate the drop is in the front and the back?

the drop is just 1". but if you want to go lower, then get teins...
handling definitely improved...
but you don't really feel the car is dropped... lolz

I agree with johndeo...i just got mine installed last saturday and I love them. The ride is not too stiff and drop is not overboard where i have to worry about bottoming out. Handling def improved too. The ride to me still feels stock which is what i was hoping for. I hope TRD makes a shock as well. Anyone know if they plan too?
