Default TRD Springs question...

What is the drop for TRD Springs? I am looking for something that does like 1.5in drop on an xB, and other brands that do a drop like that??? Joe

um a tein h-tech has that drop. most other drop springs are near to 2 inch. tein s-techs arent too low either. all depends what u want. soft or harsh springs.

These have a very subtle drop. If you're next to a lowered xB, you'll probably look very stock:

TRD: 1.0R/1.0R (stiffer)
Tein H-Tech: 1.0F/1.0R (softer)

But I think these will give you the look you're going for:

H&R: 1.5R/1.4R
Hotchkis: 1.3F/1.6R
Tein S-Tech: 1.7F/1.5R

Most other springs are around a 2" drop.

yeah what hotbox05 said, go with the Tein H-techs. Work great, and the drop isn't that bad. :D

Don't buy TRD's they cost "way" too much and ride too hard!

TRD's claim an inch drop but it's not even.

I think they ride ok though, but if you're looking for something lower, go with another set.

I have the TRD and they do ride stiff but it's about a 1 inch drop all around, maybe even 1.25 inches. Go with another brand if you want more of a drop.
