i have a xb2 w/19"trds on toyo proxes4 235/35 any and many input will be much appeciated

thankx all!!!!

 

You could search a little, but there's a few of us on the Hotchkis springs. I love mine. I've seen another with the TRD wheels with them, as well.

 

thankx for the reply....i search here and i think i saw a blk one w/ 19"trds where he went to hotchkis and they did the install ....he showed before and after pics....looks sweeet!!!!
and yours 2 by the way.

i guess not too many here yet w/ tein s tech on 19" trds 235/35 since they just came out with those springs.....but i assume they are close to dfs from the specs of the drop....[f:1.7"/r:2.1"]

 

Tein's were just recently released. I purchased my xB in July 07 and waited until about February 08 for Hotchkis to release their springs.

I've lowered 3 other xB2's, besides my own. The other 3 I installed DF210's. I'm still lower.

 

well ill do more searches and hopefully come across tein s tech w/19"trds 235/35
if not then i might just get them hotchkis......they loook sweeet 2!!!

 

The Tein S-Techs have a higher spring rate than the Hotchkis springs. If you want a stiffer suspension that handles better (with a stiffer ride), then get the Tein's. If you want a low ride that has a softer suspension which is probably better for daily driving, get the Hotchkis.

 

^^^The Hotchkis rides great. I've had friends in my car and they said it rides better than their cars and feels more planted.

 

Where is everyone buying their springs at?

 

ebay?
