I am looking for an aftermarket spring with the least drop, I don't want to put stock springs back... No control with stock springs ;d, I am thinking of putting NF210s? ARe there any that have less drop? Thanks.

U can do some research about TRD, 1.2' drop, gd enough for me. Mine run on stock shocks, still comfy enough.

NF210's are 1.1/1.2, that is less than the TRD springs, which are closer to a 1.5" drop.

The NF210's are less stiff, only 10% over stock (just to compensate for the shortened spring length)

If you want something higher than that.. the why not just stay stock?

You all should see the under of my car. Its so low, the frame is kinda bashed in. I have a Carbing front control arm bar that was hella bent after hitting a pot hole.

Don't mean to go slightly off-topic, but if you're looking for the best control without a big drop, you could just save a big buck and run stock springs with a rear sway bar. It's all it really needs.

Easiest performance mod you could do to your Yaris. The 23mm is a bit thicker so it's going to tighten up things a bit more as far as handling goes (keeping the body roll flat). I'd say with the 23mm that while possible to do, have a friend on hand to help fit it on one side while you get the other. Mine anyways, was a very close fit for where you install it, so it helps to have another hand to line it up.

It's not hard to put on at all though. 4 bolts and your done! The difference it makes is quite surprising, especially the 23mm.
