Ah. I would not like that. Is that because of the spacers and tire size I have, or normal behaviour for a stock configuration? Thanks!

Have a snow day today so while the kiddies were out building a snowman - I am on "Daddy-Duty" today and took a short break - I decided to lay some compound on the axleback and hit it with my DA polisher. Would have prefered bolting it on instead, but that would have made me unavailable to respond when the kids inevitably started fighting.
Hoping for to get this puppy bolted up tomorrow - or maybe later tonight after the kiddies go to bed.

So many people over the years have stated don't worry you'll be fine with your type of setup. I think the bulk of them must travel 99.9% of the time solo with no weight in the back. I've had very similar configuration, lowered 1.5", and I'm here to tell ya, the wheel mentioned will buzz the fender arch and it's annoying as hell. Sent from my EML-L09 using Tapatalk

If you plan on using the car to carry stuff or people in the back then avoid lowering springs. If you want to use it as a fun sporty type car then you will enjoy the springs but it won't be good for loading people into. Iirc the yaris weight capacity is 800lbs stock.
I had 2 adults in my rear and 2 in the front on my lowering springs and never rubbed. This was before rolled fenders and I had my 10mm spacers in the rear at the time. I was running a 6.5" wide rim with a +35 offset on a 185 wide tire. I did had some negative camber in the rear (approx -2.0) but it was fine. So Wee's experience is one thing but you won't truly know until you try it out

I used to use Amsoil, until I did oil analysis on Amsoil and Mobil1....and saw they’re pretty much the same. I use Mobil1 10w40, but for normal use I recommend their 0w20. |

Thanks for the recommendations on the oil. I think I may start using the Mobile 1 0W20. Thanks Trevor and WeeYari for your observations as well. I appreciate them.

Thanks Gents!
Click on this link if you want to hear the Megan Axleback. It's got a nice nasty growl from the 2ZR. I absolutely love the sound and it's not too loud. Looking forward to a highway drive to see if I have any droning, but the roads will have to be cleared up. Will likely be a few days before I can do that. Sorry about all the steam, but I had to open my garage door. I had my 9 yr old son revving it up for me. I'll do a better video later. Right now my son is working on the vid to blur my plate number before I re-upload it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsAKOXFyWJE I'm taking the car to an exhaust shop as I'm not happy with all the connections and positioning. I think it's still going to bang on the spring. It needs to be rolled clockwise a few degrees and held there. I also need new isolators, for sure. I'll let the pros handle the 'fine tuning'.

It does, doesn't it! I think I have a tiny leak up at the manifold/midpipe connection as I didn't get the flanges evenly torqued down on both sides. Although I ordered Corolla springbolt kits, I couldn't get both sides equally clamped. This exhaust stuff doesn't always go as planned. I figure a few bucks to get everything adjusted and secured by the pros is definitely worth it.

Thanks man! Gotta say, I'm just loving the sound of that 2ZR/Megan combo! She's got a nice growl.

Stocking Stuffers
Santa thought it prudent to reward, early, all the good little boys who helped 06YarisRS with his swap (Sorry, I don't normally talk in the 3rd person)! Some are already enroute south of the border from the North Pole.
