yes it is normal.
if you check the website of EIBACH, the drop is 1" for the Front and 1.4" for the rear

ill do the SEARCH for other Spring's wich can mach 1.4 Front Drop..

but EIBACH and TRD are SAME drop rite ?

Someone on TN also mix-matched spring sets to get a more even look for the back heavy hybdrid (he used SE and TRD, I believe). Other option could be Sprint in front and TRD in back, not sure about the handling quality. However, looking at the TRD lowered cars (including mine) the issue appears only a visual effect: The ground clearance of the car is pretty much even front and back and I believe it only looks higher in the front due to the pretty large wheel well...? Maybe that is obvious to all here though? I considered lowering the front more to make it look more aggressive, but I am already struggling on our bad roads to keep the body kit from being damaged.

Yes, TRD and Eibach are the same. No offense, but that price is average for these springs.

That was me:

I would think doing this same thing on a non-hybrid might cause geometry problems. I essentially "created" a set of matched springs for the hybrid. But the OP would take his stock SE and replace only the front springs with TRD, so his front springs would not match his rears.
