Funny!


I am pleased with the RSB + FTSB + TRD SPRINGS combination. (+ CPe... etc...)

I suspect the C/O's ARE much better, but bang-for-buck the springs have been FAR superior to the stock set up. Good ride, good handling, good drop.


My ONLY preference would be:

A little less "bounce/rebound" in the FRONT end (engine weight) after bumps, etc... but other than that, for THIS type of car, the set up is adequate, and pleasantly sporting for more aggressive driving.


NOTE: Don't forget, you TIRE type/profile, etc... will make a BIG difference in how the car rides and suspends as well... and if you go LOW profile tires with larger rims 18/19's, etc... on 45/40 series... you WILL have a "harsher" ride.

Personally, I VERY MUCH like my 50 profile tires for the great ride quality, and maintain "more meat" than many of the guys on here as a result. That is purely preference, but it works for me.


Good luck in your choices.

Hey, sorry for the late response... I've been out of touch.

I'm wearing 17x8 shod with 235/50/17 rubber all around. Very happy with the setup. :wink:
