Lower ride?

Hi guys,

I want to know which lowering spring is better for my 3 D 2009 yaris hatchback?
I am not planning to overly modify my yaris but i just think my small stock wheels with the stock spring looks too high like a sore thumb =).
Which lowering spring work best with the stock struts?? I saw a bunch of eibach pro kit has a really decent price but i got confused on which model that fits my car best.
Sorry for dragging with questions guys, i am new to the site and overly excited with questions.
Thank you.

If you want an aggressive look S-techs (TEIN) or you can try the MI springs to get just as low but with comfort, the teins can go low as 2.1 and the MI springs go 1.8 after she breaks in 1.9 its your choice. Try microimageonline.com, for the teins and MI and they have others as well, good luck

I wouldn't drop much lower than the Eibach's 1" using stock dampers.
At least not unless improved performance is not desired and cosmetic improvement(parked) is your desire.

Garm,

Are those EB Pros going to do well with the stock shocks/struts?
