New TRD springs...only ones I know about are the ones that came out when the car did--back in June.
They are ok...but I would recommend other companies over the TRD ones...namely SPY.

the spy springs are a bigger drop (2" vs 1.25") and are the way to go
.... unless you don't want to void the manufacturer warrenty, in which case the trd is the way to go (as long as the dealer installs them)
i'm using the trd just because i have the 100,000 mile warrenty, 18" rims (a tad bigger than most using 2" drop), and the dealer is giving me $400 tword the springs/install (we had a little disagreement about our contract ... i won
)
for the money, go spy ... it's about $530 to have the dealer install the springs and the money is better spent on the spy's and a coil compressor kit (when the warrenty is needed
)

spy also makes a 1.25" drop. IMO its not low enough. I have the 2" on both of our xB's. You can get spy springs for about $200 or so. I can install them for $50.00 and you dont even need a spring compressor.
