hey guys Im confused on which springs to buy to lower my Xb .I have heard some are not lowering both the front and rear to the same level . and I would like to get some but want the Xb at the same height on all 4 corners.

If you can help me out and if possible post a link to the company you think is best.

thanks Ko

 

I'm going with TRD. 2 reason's. You don't have to worry bout warrenty issues if Scion installs them and 2 it is a decent ride and it's not to low if used for everyday driving.

 

US Code - Title 15, Chapter 50, Sections 2301-2312

Legally, a vehicle manufacturer cannot void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless they can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the failure in the vehicle.

tein s tech got about a 1.8inch drop and a nice smooth ride

 

I like, make that love my Goldlines. I still am amazed at how it has changed the way my box handles. I haven't driven on any other springs except stock so couldn't compare but I got a nice 2"drop all around and Bill ( https://www.scionlife.com?scionspecialistvegas ) can totally hook you up for a good price.

When it comes down to it, it doesn't seem like there's gonna be that much difference between the different leading brands if they are all using roughly the same tension rates and such. If you poke thru the forums you'll see every brand has those that love it and those that hate it and every once in a while, people will have an actual reason...

 

KO RACER I just go the Tein S- Tech springs out on my car. They lower 1.7 in the front, 1.5 in the back but you cant notice the difference in height. They ride great and lower the car without sacraficing ride quality. The TRD drop was just not enough for me and i got the TEINS ( a well respeted company ) for $176 shipped from optionimports.com. I would recomend these springs to anyone. Hope this helps!
ScionPimpN OUT!

 

go with a japanese company with springs..
theres no PERFECT brand but most of the JDM brands seem
to be good with making the car's height EVEN STEVEN...

u don't wanna look like you're on airbags with the fron tlifted..
afterall, u are PAYING for this.

tananbe, tein, rsr, eibach, and much more are all nice.

 

I love my Tanabe's. The perfect drop without the a$$ sag look

 

i assume those are tanabe df-210's? w/ the lower drop of 2-2.5"???

cool. thanks for the pic. btw, did u change ur shocks too? do u feel there's a need to?

 

Yes they are the df-210's. No I didn't change the shocks, there was no need to do so. The drop is 2.2 for the front and 2.0 for the rear.

 

Are you runnings 18's?

 

Are you runnings 18's?

 

Yes I am 18x7.5 with a 45mm offset.

 

A couple of questions..

One, where did you get the springs and how much....

Two, are you going to the Syracuse Nationals this year? I was going to bring my Black Cherry... ;)

 

'Cuse nationals? When? That's a meet for us NYers!

 

GOLDLINES ALL THE WAY. they come with a no-sag guarantee, and handle awesome.

 

I have Tanabe DF210's on my xA. The drop is 2" in front, and 1.8" in rear. I am very happy with them...top notch company.. :D

 

yeah when??? i was thinking of making a trip to NY to go see a friend now this trip might serve as a double purpose

 

GOLDLINES!!!! I love them even drop no gap with 215/35/18s smoothed out the stock ride and gets nice and tight for the corners... Bill in vegas is the man to get em from... Mine wer $160 deliverd to FL!! I was told Goldline is a fairly nex Co. started by some Eibach guys that split.. 2" drop all around no squatty rear..no sag garuntee..

 

Goldlines for me too
