spring suggestions

[Jaspers_xB]

Ok I'm looking at getting some new springs for my box and have a few questions and am open for suggestions

1) I don't want to slam my box. I want to even out the stance so the ass end isn't so high. I was looking at TRD springs
2) Looking for a tighter ride for riding the twisties
3) Do I need to do new shocks and struts when I upgrade my springs?
4) I also want to do a new strut tower bar

Any help and suggestions are gladly welcomed and appreciated

I have the Eibach Pro-Kit springs on my gen1 and it rides great. It's a mild drop and the back is a bigger drop so it evens it out

I'm riding Tanabe NF210 Springs, with Hotchkis Sport Swaybars, and TRD Strut Brace on my Gen2. Rides great, handles great and leveled out nice with a mild drop. I did not replace my shocks, still running stock.

I have TRD springs on my XB, sits nice. It could sit lower. If your going to spend money on springs you might as well get aftermarket and not TRD. You dont need shocks/struts when upgrading your springs...but I would get aftermarket shocks/struts while your at it. It will make your car feel tighter.

You will always get better handling with a performance shock matched with a performance spring. All though, it's not necessary if the current shocks are not in bad condition and the springs selected are not too low. So with this being said, what's your budget like?
