i just ordered my stechs, I have trd springs now. DO NOT GET THE TRD SPRINGS, you will regret not going low enough. It doesnt even look like the trd lowers the car. Go with teins, htech or stech. I went with stech becaus ei really wanted to notice the drop. Just dont get trds you wont be happy, learn from my mistake. When I installed them and they started to settle i was so disapointed in it. TEIN FTW.

how long does it take to settle?

It will settle alot within the first 48 hours, but it takes about a month for them to fully settle. After then is when you want to get an alignment.

If you get the trds you will be disapointed, go with tein.

I went with the H-Tech Teins, paid 205 at a local shop. The S-Tech is a little too low.

If you goto sponsered sales here on SL and find the Mobile HID page you find the SL discount for $170 shipped.........I have them and they are great.easy to install and great warrenty as well.

If yo purchase through Mobiles main web site you do not get the discount.......the link you showed is the correct link.

Htech drop is a great drop to get......although be wary of parking curbs they are very unforgiving to the bumper......trashed mine a couple of times not paying attention.

so overall springs to buy are the htech? i want looks, but not too low and decent handling.

plus 175-200 shipped is not a bad price at all.
