Hotchkis Lowering Springs

The Hotchkis sport coil springs are in the works as we speak! We are looking at a 6-week lead time as of now, but they will be worth the wait! I will post the specs and pics as we get closer to production.

make it lower than the TRDs

but then again, not too low that the 5Axis kit scrapes too much
a little scraping is fine, just not alot

I'd say upon settling make sure the TRD and/or just about any 19" rim doesn't rub full turn to turn. Most folks are going 19" (even though I'll be going 18") and it's a factory option so lots of folks will go with that. I'd also say regardless of linear or progressive (progressive please!) don't kill the OEM shocks and struts, match them well. And yes, the rears have to go lower to eliminate the raked look.
