D2 Racing Springs vs. Tanabe DF210

So I have had my Yaris for 4 months now & I think it's about time I start to mod it. First I want to drop it. I can't afford coilovers & I don't think it would be a good idea considering my city has horrible roads! I want to hear from people who have springs. I want to go as low as possible, for as cheap as possible but still have a quality product... pics would be appreciated!


thanks! & sorry so long!

ive had the d2's for almost 6 months and 10k miles now... gotta snap some pics, but they tuck stock 15's nicely, no camber wear as of yet and the ride is stiffer than df210's on my 90 rx-7. i picked em up for 140 bucks so, im really happy with the d2's. will snap some pics after work for you.

If your roads are the worst like mine here in lovely NW PA, than maybe you should go with the NF210's.

I am putting my blues and nf's on Thursday.

Plus, being a softer spring, they should settle to a perfect 1.5" drop:D

Thank you all, I want to see pics! :D I'm leaning more towards D2
I wanna see what is lowest, the drop isn't such a big concern now that I am moving to the other side of town.. (my fiance's VW GTI is slammed and he doesn't have problems) :D
thank you!
