Info on H&R Springs
I was considering TRD springs.The problem is I want something just a little bit lower so I read that list on springs an I noticed the H&R Sport springs. Their drop is just a tad lower than the TRD. So my question is if I keep the stock shocks will the ride be terrible compared to stock? I cant find anything on them using the search so any info is appreciated.

Im using those shocks on stock struts and they are running perfectly. Actually, after i got the shocks a lot of people commented on how smooth the ride is. Even my sister who is usually really picky about these things commented on the smoothness

cmon nobody else has these springs. i just need to know if they are safe to run on those lousy NYC streets. I really dont wanna blow 800 on basics as nice as they are, and the TRD just doesnt seem to get rid of enough wheel gap for me.

I agree the majority of what I am reading is in regards to TRD, TEIN and Progress and Hotchkiss. I am really interested in hearing from those with springs by manufacturers other than the aforementioned ones. I am particualarly interested in the ride experience and quality with those other springs because my streets are horrible so i need a spring that isnt too harsh.

We are currently sponsored by H&R Springs. We have had them on stock tires and the ride was so good a few people didnt think we had lowered it yet.
Now we have 19's on the car and the ride is good still. I was kind of worried about the ride quality as well with just springs, but after driving the car a bit I would recommend any H&R Spring product for your vehicle. The quality and ride has been nothing but the best for us. Once the coilover kit becomes available we will be going to that as well.

Using the H&R Sport and love them, no regrets. If you're planning on buying a body kit or aggressive lip kit down the road, don't go much lower than these because I scrape once in a while as it is. Also running 18x8s.
