reviving an old thread.

i'm getting close to replacing my TRDs with Tein S-Techs, so it was nice to see a pic earlier in the thread. that's how i want mine to sit.

How about coil's, I personally am trying to figure out the best ones for the xD, in terms of performance and ride height. I want to go down atleast 3in.

ThisorThatxD 02-07-2012 11:34 AM

well for most of the coilovers available to us, the front can go down way more than functional (this i have learned) but the rear likes to stay up. my c8's are pretty close to 3in dropped though. lower than stechs for sure. as for ride i havent really driven it since i installed cause im trying to wait on my new wheels to come in and i can adjust them for those.

KylexD 02-07-2012 09:18 PM

Im thinking about these http://www.fastscions.com/kw-suspens...-35258003.aspx just not 100% sure about the drop.

ThisorThatxD 02-07-2012 11:15 PM

yea ive never looked into those because of the price. i paid 900 shipped. 700$ can go a long way elsewhere.

KylexD 02-09-2012 03:14 PM

And what coils did you go with?

basically these without the extra branding. scionpro gets their coilovers from c8sport, so thats what i have. hopefully next week ill have my car all adjusted and ready for pics. just waiting on the wheels.

KylexD 02-09-2012 05:38 PM

The problem is mine being 2010, Cause scionpro dont show crap for my year. lol

ThisorThatxD 02-09-2012 05:46 PM

to be fair, xD isnt even on there lol. ive heard good things about ksport coilovers for us.

KylexD 02-09-2012 06:19 PM

Well see, I liked the ksport's, and one reason being cause the specs actually say up to a 3in drop...front/rear. So I was talking to a guy from fastscions and he told me the KW coils were better quality, and they also have a 3in. drop. Well the specs I got from KW themselves say different....it says like 2.? front and 2.? rear, I know it was just shy of 3.

ThisorThatxD 02-09-2012 07:43 PM

well youre on stechs right? they already provide a 2.2in drop. so yea more is better.

KylexD 02-09-2012 08:08 PM

Yeah 2.2 aint enough. lol. But I may go with the ksports now. My idea is that I will put those coils on...get my 3in., get some 16" wheels and some real low profile tires, It should sit nice!

ThisorThatxD 02-10-2012 09:30 AM

haha you have my exact idea, only im currently going through with it. just waiting on the wheels to ship in. then adjust the coils with them on and ill see how low i can get. already rolled the fenders in preparation.

KylexD 02-10-2012 11:39 AM

Damn straight! Only im gonna try to avoid rolling the fenders, we will see. lol

ThisorThatxD 02-10-2012 03:31 PM

depends on the widths and offsets. i like to push boundaries lol

KylexD 02-10-2012 03:39 PM

Yeah, im just lazy. llol

Are those available for the xD now? Thier website doesn't show them as an option yet... I desperately need a good set of coils for my D, both my struts and my springs are shot on my car now. Dang springs were designed for the Yaris and they settled almost an inch and a half under the weight of the D, I bottom out on every little bump now, it really slams hard... :(

EDIT: Called Scionpro today, they said there wasn't enough of a demand to make them for the xD, so they will NOT be available at all.
