Video has some good tips, but so far the 1 inch drop from the trd springs hasn't been causing me to alter my driving habits any. I've always had sports cars though that are often pretty low. Had a stock height bmw M235i before this and the lowered 86 actually seems easier to manage. That car would actually get stuck on occasion coming into my driveway because it didn't have a limited split dif and the dip/angle would cause one rear wheel to lift and therefore spin freely while the other didn't move.


I have the TRD wheels on my car and love them. Much better looking than any of the other factory wheel options, with the Series.Blue STI wheels being the only other ones that actually look good IMO. And agreed, a smoking deal for a set of forged wheels.
