Thanks, but I still want to see the XXR 530 17x8.25 on TRD springs because I've been contemplating that same set up for my car.

TRD springs don't lower the car enough. USDM TRD springs are good though. Wish we could import JDM TRD springs if they made them for the 86. Not sure if they do.

Not good with import part info. Can someone chime in here? I would be all over JDM TRD springs and struts. If they are indeed more aggressive.

HI,


Which TRD sway bar you got?
I check the Scion and TRD website. The description of the size
is quite different and one sounds like that only has rear without front.


Scion (Please click the sway bar picture)


http://www.scion.com/cars/FR-S2015/a...wAll&view=grid


KIT INCLUDES:

  • Simple, bolt-on installation with no vehicle modifications required
  • 20.6mm 4130 solid front sway bar with polyurethane bushings
  • 15.8mm 4130 solid rear sway bar with polyurethane bushings
  • Rear sub-frame reinforcement brackets


TRD:
http://www.toyotaracing.com/trd/part...categories=all


Kit includes:
  • 17.5-mm. alloy steel rear sway bar
  • Factory-style ball end links
  • Polyurethane bushings and straps to hold the assembly to the FR-S
  • Polyurethane replacement front sway bar bushings that fit the OEM sway bar and brackets
  • Finished with durable, gloss-red powder coat, which resists corrosion while improving appearance and durability
Thanks.


ps. Are they hollow or solid?

Do you guys think the drop will lower it after a certain break in time?

It'll settle like any other springs but nothing major.

The sizes are wonky because of misinformation. The bars are solid. View my thread here

I just installed my TRD springs and TRD 18" rims with recommended tires and maybe its just me but it seems to have much more body roll than the stock setup I only drove it for about 30 minutes last night so I'm not 100% sure, maybe I need to install the TRD sway bars front and rear????
