Looks great! I have been considering the NF because I heard the TRD and DF springs offer a rather harsh ride. I was worried the drop with the NF wouldn't be enough, but on your yaris it looks great! How are they over stock for ride comfort and handling?

Now I'm wondering if I should have gotten the NF's instead of the DF's.

The DF look nice and all but sometimes all those tiny bumps tend to add up and start getting annoying

BTW the car looks great! Are those 17s?

yep its 17' and i dont know yet about the handling and confort.. only drove 5 meter to park it huhu.. i had the DF and it was too low for me.. the bump speed was a nightmare for me.. there is not a big difference between the nf and df but i think nf is enough with 17' depending on the road you have.. here its hole after hole huhu

I still believe NF's are the best springs to put on this car, not too low and still comfortable on quality roads. the only drawback is the rear springs are on the soft side... Sadly, I had to sold mine as the roads around here are just as good as somewhere in south Somalia

I like those rims. Where did you get them if you don't mind me asking and what's the price tag?
