So I've read some reviews, and read some threads... can I just see some pictures of some peoples actual before and after pictures of their cars and springs? I'm going to be getting these soon, and I'm leaning towards the TRD just because of my location, but I'd like to view my options.

Post the pictures and what you've got. Thanks -- it's very appreciated!

TRD's... I love them... the ride is still nice and low, yet reasonable.

I am really happy with my TRDs as well. I went with them because of where I live and because my GF bought them for me. I will see if I can find some pics.

I'd say TRD's for the fact that if I had any other spring, I'd catch hell on speed bumps and shit around MD...

If the twin-cities are like MD in any way, then TRD is your best bet! Plus it's TRD!

I'ld just like to say TRD's aren't your ONLY option for speed bumps/rough roads. I live in NJ and the roads are REAL bad by me. I have hotchkis springs and don't have any problems going over speed bumps/driveways/bumpy roads. You just have to be mindful and not go 15-20mph over things like speed bumps. I don't have to come to a complete stop and do the angular/one wheel at a time thing, but I do go over them carefully.

Truth... there are options! 8-) I don't think I've ever actually seen a tC on the Hotchkis ones...

I made this thread showing stock vs. TRD's vs. S-Techs a while back: http://www.scikotics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12459&highlight=springs

Yes, I saw this thread when I had searched. I just had wanted a picture thread of drops because I can read all about them, but I really want to see some pictures of actual befores and afters.

I'm pretty much sold on the TRD's, but I had wanted to see just a solid thread of pictures of other drops.

I am also thinking about the TRD springs. Still debating if i should just bite the bullet and get TRD coil-overs instead of just springs.
