Most definitely won't get any tire rubbing. As for springs, don't have much knowledge on them...

 

Seems like you can use 2012+ springs from what I'm reading. Is that not true? Looking into some as well.

I have Eibachs on mine, I did a review on them if you want my impressions. H&R also has a set for the 7th gen. Last I heard Tein was working on a set but they dont have a test mule so waiting on that. Other then that you can use late model 6th gen springs if you want to go lower then was the ones for the 7th gen will give you. There are also a few sets of coilovers out there; BC, Megan, and one more, if you want to go really low.

So far I've only scrapped my front bumper once when leaving my work parking lot; going in a little to hot. I was kind of sad about that one.

 

Eibach Springs




As per your comment, seems like you have the Eibach pro kit lowering kit installed on your phone. Can you tell me how is the ride quality? I have a 2012 SE V6 and ordered the springs already but hesitant about installing them. So your feedback will really help.

Thanks

 

Also getting eibachs installed here tomorrow. And if I do recall, it's only 1" in the rear, 1.5 front. Wouldn't think it would cause any suspension damage, as I have lowered most of my cars and had no issues. If you are going to be running stock wheels/tires don't worry about rubbing, won't happen. Just make sure to get your rig aligned after install if the springs.

 

Sorry, might be a noob question but i was planning on doing this myself. How do you get to the rear suspension?

 

A DIY is located in the sticky portion of the forum my friend.

I believe the rear is lower to prevent the "rake" look.

I've had Eibach springs on my previous vehicles (BMW 540i and Subaru WRX). I was satisfied with them, although the adjustability with coilovers is much better, especially when dealing with larger wheels, rubbing issues, and overall stance. My BMW bottomed out in the rear even with rolled fenders. The Subaru was ok, although the drop wasn't as low as I wanted in the front. I noticed a huge difference (improvement) going from springs to coilovers.

As far as coilovers, I researched BC's versus Fortune Auto 500's for weeks. I finally decided on the Fortunes because they are beefier and the BC's just appeared to be cheaply made. Personally, Megan coilovers aren't even an option (too many complaints about them being way too bouncy). With my Camry, I'm definitely going to wait for a set of Fortune Auto 500's (planning on going 19x8.5 for rims). Plus with coilovers, you have spring rate options and the strut/springs are precisely tuned to work together versus buying lowering springs from X company and struts from Y company.

Sorry for being long winded, but in my experience, I've been much happier in the long run with coilovers over springs.

 

Fortune Auto has no plans to make coilovers for the 7th gen Camry. They are local to me and I asked them to put them into production. They said they needed at least 20 people to commit to buying a set before they could justify the cost. I tried to arrange this and get a group buy going on here but only a few people would commit so it never happened. This was back before any other coilovers were even available for the 7th gen. That being said the guys at fortune auto are awesome and they modified a set of their 6th gen Camry coilovers to fit my car and they have been great.

 

Thanks for the info 2quik!

I've only had my ride a week, but when I'm ready to lower it, I'll call them up and see if they can work their magic.

 

why should I have to get an alignment if im only going inch and a half

 

Lowering springs & Coilovers for 2014 SE Sport

Lady's and gentlemen, I have a 2014 Camry SE Sport. Lowering spring for a 2012-2014 Camry SE's/SE's V6's suspension components are different from the 2014 SE Sport. Lowering springs WILL NOT fit a 2014 SE Sport from a regular SE/SE V6. The front and rear suspension is different on a SE Sport. I'm not sure on whichh coilovers are compatible.

 

I actually have the H&R springs for sale if anyone here is interested. 100 bucks plus shipping!

 

How far do they lower?

 

that's a good price for H&R springs. are they used or new?

 

Kinda old thread, but sent you a PM. New to this forum, so I'm not sure if it sends emails for updates n stuff.
