    The handling of the '16 Prius is amazing!

    For reference, I owned an '11 Prius which I modded with TRD Prius Plus lowering springs & a rear sway bar.

    The stock Prius 2 Eco handles better than my '11 in all respects... but it is not quite perfect- yet.

    Personally, I would like to find lowering springs. Nothing crazy, just a mild 1-1.2" lowering would be ideal in my opinion.

    Anybody making them for the US market yet?
    Thanks in advance!

    P.S.- anybody want a lightly used Gen 3-specific rear TRD sway bar? :)

    The gen4 is .9" lower then the gen3, I was assuming toyota put the trd springs on the gen4 as they lower the gen 3 about .9", you might look into the koni stock prius shocks.
