To clarify, I'm not the OP and that wasn't my picture. I'm just in a similar position where I'm running Tein S. Tech springs and am about to replace the OEM shocks/struts with the B8's. I'm happy to buy the FEBI stops, new OEM stops and use at full size or new OEM stops and cut. Just trying to find the ideal setup.

Since my B8 struts will be new in-box, I'm going to wait to see if a stop is included. If so, what size and go from there.
Any updates?

Mine were new in-box, all they came with were the nuts for the top of the shocks. No bumpstop included

Thanks for checking in. Between work and life, I haven't looked at Jegs or one of the other usual suspects for better than OEM bump stops and top mounts, so I haven't installed the B8's yet.

Worst case, I know I can go with a fresh set of OEM stops and mounts and just cut the stops like I did when I installed the springs.

FWIW...When I installed the MI springs (the way back like 8 years ago) i DIDNT cut my bumpstops and my reason was well better to have a little too much then not enough. Then I went to Tokico blues and still didnt cut them. About a year and 130~ thousand miles later I switched back to the stock springs and my oem bumps were still in fine shape and my shocks are just fine
And I thoroughly use my car ;)

Worst case, you're just losing a bit of travel over big bumps and making the stops work a little harder, right?

Does anyone know how the TRD set up is configured?

Is your question does a car equipped with TRD suspension utilize different bump stops than one with standard suspension? If so, the answer is they both use the same bump stops.

You answered my question! I figured the TRD set up would not require me to mod the oem bump stops

i dont know if this helps anyone but on my Tein Street Advance Z's they require the fronts to be cut to 60mm and the rear to remain unaltered. cutting the fronts down leaves the stiffer upper portion. i'm going to change them to a softer 58mm option i found.

Rediscovered this thread trying to pick out my next danpers.

Last year I changed out my stock front bumpstops for progressive Feal units. As even when I went back onto my stock springs I was still engaging the BSs too soon and it was causing the car to push mid corner on the road course.

So when I changed them out I also put ny MI springs back in to gain some spring rate.

The car is great. In fact in the 10 years ive owned it its never been better.

However...these Tokico blues are just a little firm on the low speed dampening and also allow too much lift which allows the car to roll pretty hard even with my big sway bars. Mind you this is on all seasons
