Progress Springs - ON SALE - Toyota Yaris Forums

cali yaris · 10-30-2008, 04:58 PM

I just got a shipment of Progress springs in, time for a SALE before I put them on the website for public consumption.

DROP: 1.7" front, 1.8" rear
RATE: 110 lbs. front, 130 lbs. rear

This is a high quality spring upgrade, from a top name maker, with a drop somewhere between the Tanabe DF210 and NF210.

PRICE REDUCED!!!
Special Price: $144.95 with FREE shipping in USA

Would you say these are stiffer or softer than DF210's?

cali yaris · 10-30-2008, 08:02 PM

To convert from lbs/in to kg/mm multiply by .0179.

So that gives us a spring rate of 1.9k front and 2.3k rear

Tanabe DF210: 3.0k front, 2.2k rear

Tanabe NF210: 2.5k front, 2.2k rear

What's the OEM spring rate on a 3dr?

I don't understand the post. Are these stiffer than stock springs and stiffer than the DF210's?

Can you just swap these directly with the stock springs without changing the shocks or anything else?

hi Tony
These are stiffer than stock in the front (but softer than DF210) and the rear is stiffer than DF210 (just)
and yes you can fit these without changing your stock shocks , if that is what you want to do.
Hope this helps

sweet. Will make a good spring for now until I go all out in a few years.

Can I make payments/ how long will these be around for this price?

Tamago · 10-31-2008, 09:03 PM

i can vouch for these springs... installed them on a Scion xD. amazing drop with no sagging or ill effects.. enough spring rate to prevent bottoming out, even on stock struts (and on a much heavier car than the yaris) .. good investment IMO

cali yaris · 11-01-2008, 01:27 AM

they'll be around until I sell them. I committed to several sets from Progress to get you guys this price. I don't take multiple payments, sorry -- that's your credit card company's job.

Yes, springs fit both the liftback AND the sedan, the sedan gets a little more drop out of them due to the extra weight.

Tamago, thanks for the assist, I haven't tried them in person.

RHDVIPbB · 11-04-2008, 12:01 PM

Was joking about the payments. I should have the money next paycheck. Now I just need to find some struts/shocks.

no problem. they seemed to install "easier" than the DF210s i did on a yaris.. the coils lined up better (very unlike progress springs on a tC lol.. )

cali yaris · 11-04-2008, 01:18 PM

awesome. I think WSCP has the Tokicos for about 300 bucks -- not bad.

Not bad. Will let you know when I get the money for the springs.

cali yaris · 11-06-2008, 12:51 AM

not sure -- but I'm sure someone else knows. Less than for the aftermarket springs, stock is pretty soft!
