Default What Springs?

I know this thread has been started before, but now that most of you have put at least a couple thousand miles on your springs I wanted to read some comments on the springs you're running on your xB or xA. I have an xA, and I know the springs are a little different; ie. ride height/spring rate, but it should give me a general idea of which springs I would like to switch to. I'm currently running on TRD's, I like the spring, very smooth ride, but I need to get rid of this wheel gap. The only two springs I'm really interested in hearing about would be the Goldlines and the Tanabe DF210's since they look like they will get the closest to removing my wheel gap. If you guys have any other suggestions I'd be more than grateful to hear them.

I love the Goldlines personally, and I have been running them or a while, but I have also heard good things about the Tanabes as well...

i know you guys got xb's, your drops are lower than the xa's, but do you guys get any wheel rub on corners and did your springs sag any after all the miles you put on them?
the only thing i'm really worried about is wheel rub cause i hit turns pretty hard so i have a feeling it's going to rub.

are you referring to DB Motorsports? $146 is very good, I was leaning towards the tanabe's a little cause of the price, most places I see the df210's for 180-210... cheapest i've found them for was $156... the cheapest i found the goldlines for was $180... so i think you just sold me onto those goldlines :D

who do i talk to over there? i'm going to install myself, so i just needa pick them up :D THANKS!
