hey heres my lowered solara on trds and stock se struts

sorry cell phone pics

i have a question does the rear sag a little more because i can get a finger in the front straight but the rears i have to angle my finger a little
is this normal, these springs were bought from pxlpainter

Looks great man. Nice job.

Looks damn good! Do you have any consideration for wheel spacers - but you don't have much gap.

What thickness would be ideal for stock 17" sport wheel TRD spring and SE Struts? I am about to install the same setup on my 07 Sport but with stock wheels...

i have a set of g35 wheels that i am about to put on soon my tires is close to bald so i'll update then, so any gen 2 people notice on theirs with the rear sagging a little more?

Looks great with the drop! As for the back sag... since they were off of Jeff's vert, the extra weight may have had something to do with that. A new set of struts might do the trick.
Seeing your lara reminds me I really need to source myself the lip kit.

thats the thing tho he told me they were new but there were dirt on there that seemed he used them for a bit i dunno his vert couldn't have been that much more heavier in the back than a regular coupe

My TRD's on my camry sag a little in the rear also .These I bought brand new .

Nice drop dude. I havent seen your car in the area. Reason why I say that cause your locations says Stockton.

oh yea my parents live in Stockton so i'm down there a few times on the weekend but i'm up here in the bay

Your car is looking great!

How is the ride now?

I read so much about how you can't just put lowering springs on stock struts, do you plan to get new shocks later on?

Well im lovin the ride but im hatin how jarring it get when i encounter a big bump or dip in the road, as for my stock struts well they have only 40k miles on them before i put the trd springs on and my struts are the sport struts not the sle so it feels a little stiffer than stock, but down the road i might get new shocks but for right not its doing fine.

time for a bay meet!

I was told by the dealer, that the red ones were for the gen 2.5 because the back
was a little higher than the front from the factory. While the black ones were for the
gen 2s

and btw i have the red trd springs with less gap in the back.

this is from the dealer who I brought it from,
