I currently have TRD springs and I just recently ordered TRD struts and I wanted to know everyone's opinion if I should change my TRD springs into Hotchkis springs? But it doesn't seem like the Hotchkis springs lower the car any more than the TRD ones, so should I just keep the TRD springs and take the money for the Hotchkis springs and get sway bars instead? I have stock gts rims, any pics of those with Hotchkis springs would help or a measurement of the ground to your wheel fender is good also. Thanks.

Are you just lowering for looks, or are you going for performance too? If you are going for performance, you arn't going to be able to go any lower than the TRD's unless you upgrade your shocks. If you are just going for the look of the drop, how much lower do you want your car to sit? There are a lot of options out there for springs, if you don't like the look of the hotchkis there are a lot more options that lower the car a lot more.

Looking from all the pics that I seen people with Hotchkis springs, they look as low as my TRD ones, I am looking to lower my car a little more, but not as low as the Tanabe. But don't worry, I'm in for performance also, I have TRD strut/shock on the way. So anyone with Hotchkis springs, please prove me wrong about the height difference with the TRD.

I have the Hotchkis springs/ TRD strut combo. I'm gonna buy a digicam in two weeks and let you guys see if the Hotchkis drop is right for you.
