When looking for lowering springs, should i trust the cheap ass ones on ebay? I dunno if they are just good deals or absolute crap. I dont know that much about lowering springs so im just trying to get some advice here. Thanks.

ive tried many suspension setups. First was eibach sportline, which did the job on the stock shocks and gr-2s after, but didnt achieve the lowering height i wanted. I switched to tein s-tech when they first came out and the drop was 1.2 which was crap when i put on my stock tires. It was a bit stiff on the gr-2's. After a while i switched to JIC SA's which sagged on me, but gave me a noticeable difference in ride height. The ride quality came very close to stock quality. in the end, i am currently using the gc setup with the gr-2's which with bushings, did improve my ride more than ever. Its smooth, yet u can still tell taht your in a toyota and not a mercedes. If anyone has any further questions, feel free to PM me. BTW im looking for someone to trade my ground controls for intrax sports. PM if interested. Thanks
