Any rubbing, if there's a Michigan meet I hope to see your car....also, do you have a stock or aftermarket exhaust system?

No rubbing even with 17" wheels, but have been solo in the car so far. That might change with passengers/gear, etc. I have a Megan Racing muffler and I think the pipe and axle beam make contact sometimes. I'm going to try some shorter rubber exhaust hangers to see if it solves the problem. Other than that, I'm good!

How's the ride quality with the TRD springs?

XYaris · 03-25-2010, 06:19 PM

I have the same springs and sway bar along with 17's. Ive never rubbed. Also, look forward to an additional 1/2" drop as they settle.

Ride quality is def. firmer but I believe the springs are progressive, so that helps a bit. The 17's kill the ride much more than the springs.

Yeah, I have 17" x 7" rims with +42 offset, 205 40 17 tires and there is no rubbing. The car definitely handles better, but ride is a bit rougher. I like it, but my wife noticed a difference right away. The car bounces a bit, but that is due to the stock struts and shocks. Maybe next year I'll replace them.
