yes you will bottom out at times with 4 in car with DFs.tires will rub in back too depending on offset.front seems fine with 4 in car though.I only use car for going to work and back and at best carry one passenger or a few tools,NFs really would be a better spring for having passengers.

LOL I forgot that was on there.....a person on the xB forum on Scionlife was selling them a while back.It has a magnet base and then the winding part on top.They had those and the nose rings for front bumpers.

NFs look just as good on the carand they ride fine too from what I hear.With DFs you kinda gotta learn to live with the hazards of bumps,dips,and entrances with lip kit on.

I think with your tire size you would be fine with the DF's. And for saftey I would add a rear sway bar. Helps keep the car parrallel to the ground.

I live in a place were every 4 seconds I will hit a bump of some sort.

I usually have a passenger.

And I have the TRD srpings, I really am debating to get NF's because of the harsh ride quality.

I need new shocks right now, mine are dead and the car is bouncing all over the place. I guess after the new shocks, if the ride is way to harsh, I will change from the sportivo to NF's?

Someone give me some heads up please.

I love the way my car rides with NF210s with 205/50/15 no rubbing at all and it's a pleasure to drive everywhere but deep snow!

yeah, i'm rocking 17's. 4x100 i think (honestly not sure on tire sizes). usually ride alone, maybe my girlfriend in there too. dfs? really don't want a great deal of rub, but want it to look slammed down.
