who has this configuration?
does anyone have TRD springs and Tokico struts?
how is the ride comfort? does this combination get rid of the camry "bounce"?
i've had it with my car bouncing like crazy when i go over any bump.

Any strut will get rid of bounce. Bouncing is due to bad struts.

i'm not sure on the exact age of the struts but they were replaced a few years ago.

what kind of struts do you have? and can you estimate how many miles youve had them on, and how many of those miles were with the TRD springs?

the struts are oem and i'll have to get back with the miles because my dad put them on when it was his car.
also i forgot to say that the bounce is only in the back when i hit a bump.

your struts are probably worn because you arent supposed to put lowering springs on OEM struts ...

just about any car on lowering springs with stock struts will bounce.
long story short, get some performance struts and you'll get rid of hte bounce
