i'm thinking of getting TRD springs and getting them installed at a shop. i'm guessing 500 dollars total. is it worth it?
The TRD springs actually keep the front/rear stiffness ratio (both are stiffer by the same percentage) so the rates themselves shouldn't change the car's balance.

However, I found that the rear picked up more negative camber than the front from the lowering. More negative camber in the rear generally helps keep the rear planted when turning.
