I like the TRD springs on my FRS, it’s a mild drop. Just to visually get rid of some of that 4x4 wheel gap is worth it. LOL And they are made by Eibach I think, so they are good quality.

The TRD springs (port installed) on my 2020 86 were terrible. No suspension travel at all and always hitting the bumpstops. Unless you live down South I would avoid these as they are NOT matched to the dampers.

As I said in the other thread they were likely improperly installed. It is not normal to hit the stops all the time.

For the record I have lowered every car I have owned since 1995.
Even my … GASP … Lancers! So far the Hakone is the only one that lasted at stock height for more than a week. Damn covid.
