what lowering springs to use - Toyota Yaris Forums

Peruns · 08-31-2009, 08:41 AM

got my new Yaris for a couple of days now.
installered a 17" 215/40 rim.
now i want to get a little closer to the road without losing to much comfort and risk that my tyre runs against the fender..
maybe a drop of 1.5 or so..

some pictures:

TRD reds will drop it 1.2" (advertised) but likely end up closer to 1.5" once settled in after several thousand K.
