I have H&R Sports Springs on Monroe Shocks. Ride quality is nice. Doesnt really lower it an extreme amount like a dumped suspension, but I have two fingers between the tire and fenders

I have Tokico Blue Shocks lowered on Tein S-Techs. I might go lower once I get some 17s on. Right now they're on stock 14".



The ride quality is equivalent to that of the new Camry SE models, if not, bit stiffer and more responsive, which I like.

Funny this post came up today. Yesterday my car got Tokico's with H&R's put on...and honestly it doesnt feel that far off from stock.. the ride quality is better than what i expected. It feels more glued to the road too. I'll get some pics up later on today.. and i think i have about 2-2.5 finger gap all around..i have to check again

First I had sprints on stock shocks...sucked. next i got tokicos to go with thme, much better, but too soft. after I got the car back, there were a nice set of H&R springs with tokico shocks, and i loved them, not as low as i wanted but felt great. finally i did what i should have from the beginning and got coilovers.

Dropped right now on tokico blues and ground control. in the next two weeks should be switching over to tokico and eibachs. ground control isn't good if you live near new york city, stupid potholes.. ruins the ride whenever you're going straight. on turns though, nothing is better than a stiff spring setup like gc's. the eibachs also won't give me a huge drop.. got some hellaflush stickers to take off the rear windshield after switching over
