Default DF210's, still the lowest Springs?

Just as the title says, are DF210's still the lowest springs you can go with the stock struts? or is there anything lower out there now-a-days.

Also, where to buy? I see ScionSport has them for $149+$35 shipping on eBay, they reputable? anywhere else got them genuine and cheaper?

(it's been about a year since i've looked, that's why i'm asking )

If you want to go lower you can do the Randode method, which uses Goldlines- tC 's for the front and xB1 for the rear- which drops about an inch more all around than xB2 DF210's. That is about as low as you'd want to go without air.

^ Yea, but he wants springs on a 1st gen.

DF210 is pretty much your best option.
Now, if you can find a set of Spy springs, those were almost 3".

Ahh, my bad.

Sprint springs are also pretty low for the 1st gen, also Monroe struts lower the front another .5".

Actually, the lowest springs I have seen on a 1st Gen xB are the HKS SF5 Sport Springs.

Get yourself a set. They are very nice springs. I also added some Toyota Echo struts just to get it a 1/2" lower in front.
