TRD Coilovers..
Is anyone on the board running these? I'm have several options that I'm considering for coilovers. Those being the BC Racing BR coilovers and the TRD Coilovers.
I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find any information regarding the spring rates nor levels of adjustment for the TRD Coils.
Someone help!

There's a thread pinned in the top of this section that tells you adjustment range.
And Google is your friend:

Spring rates are stiffened to 250 pounds/inch in front, and 400 pounds/inch in the rear—helping reduce body roll in hard cornering while providing a comfortable, compliant ride.

are you looking for coilovers for handling purposes or slammage?
as far as drop on the TRD coils, scion_jon was baby tucking on stock wheels/tires,
and as for handling, the TRD coils have threaded strut bodies, meaning the lower you go, the less shock travel you have(and also changes spring rates in the process) which i really dont like about these type of coilovers.
