I don't know. I have Tein S Techs. If I was looking for the best ride, I would look into a good linear spring. The stock shocks are designed for linear springs. That's why I would figure the SPY 1.25 would be a good choice. Never tried them though. IMO the h tech does not have enough drop (the same problem with the TRD's)

With the high curb and steep drive way, I am looking for something that doesn't drop that much. Just looking for good spring to improve the ride quailty. I got jeoulous just watching people with 2" drop but I can't

Has anyone tried the XA springs. You may be able to get those for free.

Is there a set-up that would just give a plusher ride? I'm talking about Lincoln Towncar ride, not bouncey or high in the sky...Little to no lowering at all, stock height is even fine...

XA or Echo springs.
