My 04 corolla has lowering springs but oem struts.Any ideas on struts to go with the lowering springs? What and where to get them at ?

What springs do you have? Tien, Eibach, TRD?

Usually the 03 and up corollas come with gas charged struts, you shouldn't really need new ones unless there is too much lean on turns.

Tokico is a personal fave...i even got Vamp to switch to them.

The springrate for the lowering springs is much higher, plus the range of motion isnt compatible with the original shocks. They would blow quite soon.

My favorite Bilstein Sport B6

apparently the 03+ struts aren't as bad as any of their predecessors...but i'd still swap them.

essentially, you have a little longer before things get bouncy.

forgot to mention - try vpower.net.
