different front and rear suspension setup?
About a year or so ago i lowered my xb2 on trd springs. i just bought a used set of ksport coilovers a couple of weeks ago. i installed the rears, but i dont think im going to install the fronts. The front is about a inch higher but i think i wanna keep it this way. it looks good to me at this stance, and i dont have to worry about having to go super slow over bumps or worry about rubbing. i have decided that i dont wanna slam it like i thought i wanted to in the 1st place. i want to have a reliable daily driver that can haul the whole family around from 1 event to the other. does anyone think that the xb will look weird like this? i will try and get a couple pics to show you tomorrow.

You said that you are happy with it, but still ask if anyone thinks if it will look weird set up that way?
I think it would look weird. Sell the KSports and get another set of lowering springs, maybe DF210s. Run springs all around. Heck, could even just put air bags in the rear.

I have the same problem with my TRD springs in my tC. The front is about an inch higher and it drives me nuts. I picked up some s-techs and am going to put them in the front to level it out with the back, so I'd have s-techs in the front and TRD in the back.

I've had buddies run 2 different sets of springs, front and back, with no issues.
No suspension geometry to really effect, other than the usual when lowering the xB2. Just make sure to get an alignment.

the girlfriend has been throwing a fit about how the coilovers were a waste of money and how its not a family car now that i have been doing different things to it, so sadly the coilovers are coming off and its going back to just the trd springs. soon im gonna get some tanabe df210's and that will be it.

Why not put the front ksport in and adjust the whole thing to the height you want it? Sounds like more of a headache to take the rear off and buy springs, then put those in and sell the ksport. That's the beauty of coilovers, you can adjust it close to what you want in terms of height.
