The springs I mentioned above are at most a 1.8 inch drop and the very least (TRD) 1.25, maybe 1.5 inch.

I doubt you'll have any problems with either of those drops over speed bumps and the such.

You won't have trouble on most roads, speed bumps and all. Just be careful when you're parking straight in - stay away from the curb at all costs.

The curbs when parking are what I'm afraid of!

Okay... by popular demand... pick the better one. I won't tell which is which.

Just drop it with TRD springs it will look at a lot better and ride great.

I heard somewhere that it would void the warranty?

I really need a crash course on lowering a car. I know nothing about it. Zero.

Your warranty will be ok.

They will be out in a few months for the 09s. TRD sent us the 09 parts catalog a couple of months ago.. Toyota has built a special 09 rolla to show to dealers and heard it had a lot of TRD parts on it.

Akira, do you work for Toyota?

So I won't lose my warranty, eh. Do you know how much TRD springs are? What about installation? I guess I have to wait for the 09 model springs then.

But I really don't want to lower my car.

I have people telling me that tire rack is wrong about the 5-114 pattern and others telling me that they are right. Anyone care to chime in here. Thanks

Yes I work for Toyota and the parts by TRD are being made but when and how much they cost is the big question. I was mad when I saw a preveiw parts book with parts that I had to wait for 2 years for my Camry to come out.
