I have some lo-mi SLE struts if you want them!

does it matter that i dont have a sle? would it ruin my ride or something??

by **PXLpainter** » Tue May 29, 2007 1:27 pm

Ahh... are you on SE struts and TRD springs now? (would help to actually READ your sig first, huh?)

You won't want the softer SLE springs then - trust me!

You might wanna go with coilovers for the price. No risk of blowing those out and you'll have adjustable ride height. :up:

Problem is up hear winter would totally jake them up with all the salt they throw down. So I was looking for a set of struts with either the eibach or intrax springs. Not sure which.
