Safest Springs on Stock Shocks

[Apostle]

I'm on a budget, and my stock shocks were replaced 20,000 miles ago according to the maintence records from the previous owner, so they are in good shape. So what's the safest set of springs i can get? I want to go as low as possible.

[kHaNg]

stock tems doesnt do that for ya?

[themadhatter]

eibach or b&G would be the best springs for stock shocks imo

[Wiisass]

I don't know what Khang said means.

And for stock shocks with 20k miles on them, I would just keep stock springs. And then just wait and save up some more and then get a better setup.

[Doward]

Yeah. My springs/shocks are still in great condition, and with the exception of the 4x4 ride height, they were very nice to ride on.

Save up to do some real shocks + springs.

[Apostle]

IDK i really hate the 4x4 ride height, what was toyota thinking? My first priority is lowering the damn thing, I think I'll just get the Eibachs, i've heard B&G is too soft.

[DegreE]

Eibach Prokit.

[MaJiKaL TaNk]

I have the stock TEMS on mine and they still work good with the 139k miles on them but the height is too much and I already got rims and tires coming in so I think that would help the car's look a lot.
Are springs something I can install on my own even with having the adjustable suspension?

How bad is scrapping over bumps and uneven road?

[GrimJack]

I ran ST springs for years with stock shocks. Actually, I still have them in my garage somewhere!

[oowee623]

is there any downside or cons of running lowering springs on stock good condition shocks?

[kingsupra]

i think it just puts more stress on the shocks, wearing them out sooner if im correct?

[Doward]

It'll do more than that (since the shocks are designed with a certain range of motion) - I'd seriously stay stock, until you can do both.

I've always treated shocks and springs as a packaged deal. One without the other is a waste of time, imho.
