Ride with TRD struts shocks springs

My 09 lift back is approaching 130k. I think the struts are wearing. I'm thinking about the TRD struts and shocks. And perhaps their springs.

I live in downtown Houston where the streets are in abysmal condition. What will this do to the ride? Slightly firmer would be ok. Any jarring wouldn't be.

Thanks Craig

I'm thinking the answer is TRD struts and shocks with the stock springs. ..but wanted to hear from experience.

I just put on TRD struts and springs. Couldn't be happier. Ride is a bit firmer but still very comfortable. Talk to the parts department at your local Toyota dealer. I got mine at a nearby dealership where I know the parts manager. He gave me a deal I couldn't find anywhere else.

Thank you.

I wish that there was a standard height progressive springs choice....i like the tallness. Its something that defines the stock Yaris. And I'm old...it makes it easier to get in and out of!
