Default rear springs

i cannot, for the life of me, find rear springs. my car came with TRD lowering springs, i went to coilovers, and plans have changed and i want oem style suspension for the car. does the car not come with rear springs or something? even rockauto only sells the struts

1. Only the front of the car has struts. The rears are shocks.
2. What are you looking for exactly? TRD springs? OEM take-offs?
3. The TRD springs are too stiff IMO and ride like crap. I would replace whatever it has with Tein S-Techs - you're not going to find a better riding spring for this car. I really liked my Tein S-Techs before moving to coilovers because there were no good shock options at the time.

The TRD springs were the best but unfortunately they were discontinued. Rockauto I don't believe sells springs. I haven't used the Tein's but I heard good things. I have Koni Orange and HR springs which I find is a good combination for street driving and comfort. I think you might be able to find used springs in a junkyard if you wanted to go back to OEM. They shared parts with the Toyota Echo as well so you might be in luck but otherwise there are a lot of aftermarket options for springs. I got mine from Tire Rack. A very good deal. Hope that helps.
