    MikeDee, it depends on what you are hoping to accomplish from the upgrade. For me, it solved the issue of highway directional stability. If you do not feel that you are having that issue then save your money. IMO, it did NOT do anything else for me. In other words, I don't notice any *performance* enhancement at all. It just simply tracks straight down the highway now.

    Yes, it's worth the money. It corrects Toyota's insistence on creating car's with massive amounts of understeer. My 2010 now goes where it's pointed in turns and allows me to power out of them.

    The full Plus Performance Package on my Solar Four makes it corner very flat and sticks like glue. It has the Michelin MXM4 tires.
