new shocks/tires for a more comfortable ride?

More name calling, no facts. I'll take that to mean you couldn't find any information refuting what I said, and now realize yaris struts don't change ride height, and spring rates on springs do change with wear.

What facts are you looking for? Find one time I said "Yaris struts lower a Yaris". You made a blanket statement that "struts do not effect the ride height". And that's simply not true under all circumstances. How many times now have I said "Echo struts on Scions". The automotive world is a hell-of-a-lot bigger than the Yaris and I was referring vehicles other than the Yaris...and I've owned at least 30 cars in the last 20+ years, so I've got tons of experience.

There's an old saying that says arguing with people on the net is like wrestling a pig in the mud. At some point you realize the pig is enjoying it. So I'm done entertaining you.

I do, however, apologize to the OP for my part in throwing this thread off-topic. I'll simply restate what I said earlier. Tires can make a big difference in ride quality. Also a nice compliant damper (I dare not say the name) along with your stock springs (which aren't worn out) can improve things a great deal. The right tires and dampers made a big improvement to my xA and xB. That's first-hand experience....for what it's worth.

lol sure, but its most likely NOT going to make the ride less bumpy :D

bouncy != bumpy
