Pic Request: TRD Lowered 2010-2011 I4 SE

[MagneticGraySE]

I'm considering getting a set of TRD springs for my birthday coming up.

I've searched around and only came up with a few pictures. Most threads are questions about them with very few pictures of TRD lowered SE's on stock 17"

If there is a pic thread please point me in the right direction.

And seriously, how uneven is the drop when an I4 is lowered??? It can't be that bad...

I personally wouldn't drop my car on stock wheels anyway maybe that's why it's hard finding some pictures. I was in the midst of ordering the Eibach Pro-Kit but a ton of people have been telling me to do coilovers. Some people getting the sagging look on springs, some think the drop is even but it all depends because different brands drop to different heights.

With coilovers it's adjustments to your liking. My concern was if I went springs I'll soon enough need new struts and that can cost on average $500-$600 so add it all up; might as well been better off going for coilovers. I also hear the worst coilover surpasses the best spring lol and that's from a guy heavy into imports and owns a reputable mod shop up where I live. I'd research more into it dude, then again it's all personal preference.

1-2 fingers difference. Not too bad.

DO NOT buy TRD springs for your i4. Do what I did and get h&r. Why set yourself up for disappointment?

I love my TRD

Now that doesn't look that bad to me. It's not too slammed but has a nice stance. Did it add a lot of negative camber?

[GT-R]

I told you it's not that bad!!!

[SoUtHsIde_ChI]

nope not bad....just have someone do a great job on an alignment and your set.

[fukdomestic]

do you typically have to change the struts on any spring set you get?

[GT-R]

No.

Especially yours, SE models have KYB struts, so no need to change it unless they're leaking. Same as mine.
