All good news then. The Eibach springs will be much cheaper for me

Benggolf2, thanks for the pictures, that gives an idea of how it will look like. Are your wheels 15"?

marcus, what do you mean by cuting the bump stop?

Hi Moura, they are 17" x 7" +40 offset with 205/40 x 17 tires. I am sure you will be happy with the Eibachs.

I do not not have any rubbing issues and handling & cornering is much improved, yet the ride is still very compliant (smooth and comfortable).

Ahh ok! They looked to me like 15" because you have sport tires, and I didnt realise that.
My wheels are 15" but the tires are 185/60, so it will look more or less the same.

My engine is only 1.0, so Im not changing the wheels size or it wont move

Something I notice now is that the Yaris Shocks or springs are very stiff.. for example, in the speed bumps itīs very very hard, even when going slowly Im hoping it will get better with the Eibach springs.

Cheers
