Ksport yaris springs on XD
Newbie here and was wondering if the Ksport Yaris springs would fit on our XD's? It shows a 2 inch drop and they have them for the hatchback and sedan. I would assume the sedan would have a more accurate spring rate for our cars. Let me know if someone has experience with this. Thanks

On my xD i'm running the Tanabe DF210 springs for the Yaris so I don't see why those would not work also...Question though, why not go with the Tanabe's over the Ksport's...Got em' from microimageonline.com for a good price...

I like the tanabe's and it seems to be the most popular but I can get the Ksports for about $60 bucks cheaper. I also keep reading how the front sits about 1/3" higher than the rear on the Tanabe's and that would drive me nuts.

It is true that the Tanabe fronts due ride higher in the front...The ride on the Tanabe is awesome, I don't know anyone riding on the Ksport's though...Maybe you should try them out and let us know

I may have to be the guinea pig for this one, Im really liking the price of them. It says its a 2" drop for the yaris so with ours being about 300Lbs heavier, I will prolly see 2.2" after they settle. Should look good though! I just hope they sit even and the spring rate isnt too soft.

Will be anxious to find out what you get.

OK, I have a question for y'all - does ANY spring manufacturer actually make a different spring set with a different part number for the Yaris vs. the xD?? Every vendor I have looked at for springs use the same set of springs for both cars, the same part number, spring rate, etc., including Tanabe - last time I checked, Tanabe's website listed the exact same part number for both cars, Yelosub... There doesn't seem to be any distinction between a "Yaris" spring and an "xD" spring that I'm aware of, I think it's all just a big myth - they are one and the same for most vendors... I am using Progress springs on my xD, and those are specified as Yaris/xD springs, as well...

Yea, the part number for the Tanabe's springs for the xD and the Yaris are the same so that's why I ordered mine from microimageonline...They were WAY cheaper when ordering for Yaris then when ordering through different vendors for xD...Kinda weird, same spring, same part number...Just trying to rip people off I guess...Glad I found them at microimage Search for yourself...When I was trying to buy my Tanabe's, I had originally ordered them through several different places for the "advertised" price but when it came time to ship they emailed me and said the price on the website was incorrect and the price was much higher...I was like WTF...So then I found that the part numbers for the Yaris were the same and ordered them from microimageonline.com and couldn't be happier...Awesome company to do business with...
