Default TRD WHITE LOWERING SPRINGS

I was just wondering if anyone knew where I could locate a pair of the WHITE TRD lowering springs for a 2007 tC. Most places I've found that sell them say they are currently on backorder and only the red are available, which I don't want at all.

If possible, please let me know where I can actually find the WHITE springs. THANKS!!

I allready contacted TRDsparks.com and they were the ones that said only the red springs are available right now. They said they randomly get shippments of them in, they just never know when it will be. I will try McGeorgeparts.com tho, thanks.

Well, McGeorgeparts.com doesn't carry them, only the red. I heard a 'rumor' that the white are lower than the red... not sure if thats true or not. The only difference is mainly the colors. I just figured white would look better on my white tC. lol

Ah well, I'll keep looking. lol Hopefully TRDsparks.com will get them in soon.

well, if you got the money, heres a set of shocks & springs (seller says "TRD coilovers" but thats not them). Its the white springs already installed on TRD shocks. There's 2 sales, the other springs are brand new but doesnt say what color....

It's not. Both the red and the white are the same springs, same drop.

ive heard the white is lower than red rumor. i doubt its true unless they started using different steel or something. its very possible that they were made with a different batch from different metal and they just settle lower. some peoples reds settle out to be a lot lower than other peoples. i think its really just a hit and miss thing.

Yeah, I have been looking for white ones since December. Good luck, no one has them. Your best bet is checking the classifieds and buying used. A guy in my club just got some from a dude here for $130.

Cool deal! You're going to love the look and slap yourself for not lowering it sooner.
Its also cool because you can go with A LOT of wheel set ups that other Springs can't handle.
GL and post some pics after they 'settle'.
