what I think would help a lot of us looking at lowering springs is what springs you used and what alignment and camber issues you ran into......

example with the tanabe df springs I didnt have to adjust the suspension at all.........but with the nf I needed new camber bolts up front and thin shims out back.......

I want an ok drop but dont wanna deal with camer bolts and things like that......

Thanks for the pics! That drop look sweet. It looks a tiny bit lower in the front than the DF's. I guess that makes sense though. The Teins claim to be about a half inch lower in the front than the DF's.

Wait for some REAL camber bolt is my recommendation. true you can go smaller bolts but its going to be able to rock out of place when you hit bumps. GO TEIN if you want the closest to stock ride with the lowest drop.
I Apologize for this... big time. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO AN ALIGNMENT SHOP THAT USES A TAPE MEASURE. those guys bull shitted me. i went to good year tires this time and found the truth. you WILL need a shim kit for the rear, and a camber bolt up front. sorry for all those who i mislead.

I purchase some elibachs lowering springs and I'll be putting it in along with some 17" rims. My questions I guess is, where can I get the shim and camber kit needed for my Yaris Sedan? Any ideias?
