Oem springs with tokico blue?

Hello guys.

Itīs possible to install Tokico shocks with oem springs?

The car feels well??

I donīt want a very hard suspension. Most of miles that I drive are on highway.

Thanks!

I have that setup, the car drives great on all roads, ALOT more firm then stock. It cost me about $175 to get them installed.

They are probably as good or better match for the OEM springs as they have the same stroke length as OEM shocks. The TRD springs are very mild IMO and don't lower the car much at all, if I were changing shocks I would just do the trd springs too. There isn't an extreme handling package with stiff shocks and springs available for the Yaris yet. Hopefully Koni will come up with something.
