    Hey guys,

    Looking into some lowering springs and wanted to get some thoughts on whether I should go with the Toyota springs or Eibach. Pros, cons, or opinions would be greatly appreciated!

    TRD's feel just fine to me. The travel is reduced so with that comes a rougher ride. For me it's fine but perhaps the road I drive on are pretty smooth?
