OK SO I MADE THE LEAP FROM HONDA TO TOYOTA, WHICH QUITE HONESTLY IM PRETTY STOKED ABOUT BUT..... I WANT TO LOWER MY MATRIX... NOW I HAVE A 2003 XRS I WANT TO PUT SOME NICE 18" AXIS ON IT, BUT I NEED TO KNOW WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD DROP, OR DID THE XRS COME WITH A GOOD SUSPENSION THAT IT WOULD BE COMPLETELY STUPID AND IGNORANT FOR ME TO GET RID OF THAT SUSPENSION AND I SHOULDNT EVEN GET RIMS LOL.......

17"s are comfy but if you go with 18"s its a great addition. How low you want to go. There are springs that are 1.2",1.5", 2.0", or 2.3" or if you really wanna go low there are coilovers. I have TEIN Stech springs which are 2.3" in front and 2.1" in rear on Tokico Hp series struts. Excellent ride quality
