Can't really tell from your pics but, does your rear sit lower than your front?

^ Hey Mistabullet where the pics you promised? Get your ass on AIM! Anyways, looks really good man. You should get red valve stem caps to complement the red calipers.

Why does your rear sit lower? The design of the TRD springs is for the SE-V6 to sit level all around. Yours is the first SE that I've heard with this problem using TRD springs. (Hybrid owners always have this problem, which I solved by using SE springs in the rear).

No, same is true for Akira's... You should remember that I installed them today, so it still needs to settle in, hopefully it'll settle more in the front than the rear

i'm guessing i4s would definately sag in the rear since we're lighter up front =[

Keep us posted because this is the only thing that's keeping me from getting a set.

OK I'm getting ready to lower my car. So you suggest you go with Teins? Did they come out with the springs for the I4?
