advice on lowering

[adam786]

i am about to lower my yaris , i am in south africa so unfortunately we don't have tanabe so i am going with the eibach pro-kit , my only concern is will my ride be very hard or different to the stock drive, cos in south africa our road quality isnt too good

I'm using the Megan springs and my front tires rub sometimes. Some hard bumps hit really hard!

Lowering will give you a rougher ride. So keep that in mind. I like the look better so the ride quality really doesn't bother me.

What about bottoming out on speed bumps? Is it bad?

[MrJester]

I have the NFs and 17s on mine and I don't notice much bottoming out unless its a pretty heavy bump.

I had pro-kit on my last car (civic) and I'd highly recommend those springs for street use. When I finally get around to putting springs on my Yaris, I'll pick the cheaper of the two, Tanbe vs Pro-Kit.

Shouldn't have cut the bumpstops! Mine Megans have never bottomed.
