Default TRD Springs and Struts...

Yesterday I got my Springs and Struts installed, and boy what a difference. The body roll is gone, and the car now hugs the road on turns. As nice as cars looked when there slammed, I did not want to deal with steep driveways and speed bumps again, so the amount of drop is perfect for me, and the way the car handles now is unbelievable. It feels like its on rails. Here are the pics...

Its about 1.25 right now, but i'm waiting for them to settle a bit. The struts are also TRD. As far as ride quality, its a little stiffer, and you notice it when you hit bumps on the freeway.

that looks a lot better. the stock height was not working, but it does look great now. what is nice is that there will probably be very few people with those wheels.
