Help Me Get That Slammed Look...

Hi all,

I am trying to slam my Yaris like this car...

(he is on these forums, but forgot his name)


Can this be done on springs or coilovers only? Please advise which ones, also what size wheels will tuck like that? Thanks!

i guess if you go with DF210's you can get pretty low.... which might clear bumps.
That is way to low....

Isn't that Jeff's (03Z33) pre-decked out LB?

The Tein S.Tech's go pretty low. I can barely clear speed bumps, but if I have people in the car, my exhaust hits.

My friend's Toaster is so low that I can't even put my entire foot below his front lip.

I think 03Z33 is sitting on some coilovers (forgot which brand) and is running some camber up front and in the rear and those wheels are 14"

Coilovers can only get you that low. You can ghetto fab it and cut the springs but you'll blow out your shocks even if you have performance ones like Tokico or TRD because you'll be bottoming them out if you are that low. If you get coilovers you would want a pretty stiff set like Silk Roads or BC Racing and they are both dual height adjustable which means you can get really low.

you can get that same effect with some other coilovers (tein, megan, etc.) these SK's are probably something 03Z33 imported from Japan?? PM 03Z33 he can help you out quite a bit, he has answered many of my questions. he is very knowledgeable on suspension set ups.

Silk Roads are the way to go. Nice stiff ride, rides like a true sportscar!

Garm was selling the Silk Roads. PM him to see if he still has a set in stock.

He quickly mentioned the brand, and it didn't sound like a brand that makes a set of coilovers for the Yaris.
