I have 65,000 miles on prokit springs (same as TRD) and stock shocks. Cost me $235.


Something most guys do not talk about: Coilovers have a life of 50K or less. And then will need rebuilt. So, buying an inexpensive set is not always the best idea. Additionally, many of the less expensive coils are not rebuildable, have poor customer service, or if they are rebuildable you may have to pay to ship them out of the country.


I have read many reviews of coils under 1000. Most guys will give a glowing review of what ever they decide. And, since they are buying in the 1000 and under range, probably have not tested other coils. Making a side by side unbiased opinion hard to find.


Keep reading suspension threads in the tech section. Ask some specific questions. Then, make a decision.



Good Luck!
