maybe measuring a different way. Or, for that price it looks like he may not have gotten the BASIS but maybe a higher model (don't know if Tein even makes another model)

maybe these:

There's only 5 inches of ground clearance on my hatch, stock. Not sure how you could drive it with that kind of drop...

Maybe the Basis drops more than the Basic?

Edit:

But it showing up as 3" max drop for the Yaris: http://www.tein.com/products/street_...rice_list.html

I was looking into the "new" design a few months ago and found the only difference between the basic and basis is the following

"Vehicle ride height is adjustable via the ZT coated threaded sleeve. Updated internal components and external coatings"..

I know you can get a little lower by removing one of the locking rings but didn't feel safe doing that

below is the pick of the rear..Tires in the pic are 205/50..Didn't mean to hijack this guys thread just was curious how he was getting 5" of lowering

Modified the coils. I cut most of the bump stop, which dropped my car lower.

Were trying to help you here man you're going to have an extremely hard time trying to sell these when brand new they cost 900. Plus is this price including shipping? Because from Alberta to any state, a 40+ bound shipment is going to be $$$.

brand new they sell for 900 so...900 + shipping is kind of bad...
