im getting rdy to order some lowering springs and I just need to know which measurements are fine so i dont go too low. I have the ground effects kit installed so do I go 1.4" front and rear or do i go 2.0" front and rear? Thanks

If they are factory ground effects go 2" for sure.....

Heres the real question which springs are you looking at? As each may say 2" but in the end it will be different

Personally, I like the mild drop of the TRD's. I have them on my tC and the fiance has them on her xA. A mild drop to get rid of the wheel gap but not slammed. I love my TRD's. :up:

yea thats what i want also just to hide the tires and make the sides look nice cause i mean the front is a low enough look with the ground effects installed but the rear could use a drop! ;)

Your friend needs to do some research...... the trd's are 1" and the tein s-techs are 1.5 or 1.7.

My car is in rough shape so bare with this photo.....

In this photo I am on trd's in the front and tein s-techs in the rear. I am in the process of switching to the teins. I also am on stick rims/tires rather than my 17" Motegis. The JP body kit is also about an inch and a half to two inches lower than the stock pieces.

GO tein s techs all the way, or else your going to be kicking yourself later, especially if your planning on upgrading your rims, which also raise your ride. i got s techs and 18"s and still have 1 inch between the well and tire, looks perfect and i get compliments on it daily.
