Your intuition is correct sir, i love them. Just put them on today, but never had the chance to shoot some pics. After a quick cleaning of my box tommorow, I will have some pics up.

Lol, sorry for the lag guys, I went up to Malibu yesterday & got some shots, but when I got home, I realized I brought the wrong camera cable. So for sure today, as soon as I get home from work. I know

225/35/20 yokohama's, I would have stretched the tire, but this is a daily driver, so I didnt want a dramatic drop so I went for the flush look. Leaning towards, tein h-tech/nf's/ or trd.

When you open up the thread using the little scissor icon in the top right corner of the original post, it will allow you to change the post topic. As the original poster, only you can change it.

Don't try NF's with those tires, they'll rub since they're so tall and the NF's are soft enough to allow too much movement vertically... the NF's provide a great ride, but tall tires will rub. You'll be fine with the stiffer TRD's, but I don't know how the Tein's ride, they're too new and I haven't seen any info on the H-Tech's yet.

Would the trd's be close to stock, or much stiffer?

I think the TRD's will be a tad stiffer. I'd recommend the NF210's to bring it down a little. The springs will give the car a more planted feel.

But what would I know? I've only installed DF210's and my Hotchkis'.

If they had offered a higher offset, I would have considered the DF's, I love the way da drop looks.
