They did the same thing for the Gen1 solara. I think the eibach measurements are more accurate but it's the same springs. Maybe it's cause trd doesn't put the sagging into account. They just slapped on the springs and measured it.

eibach and TRD springs are identical

just what solara nytez said.

im almost positive your car will not be exactly 1.2' lower. it will be in the neighborhood of around that number, thats why there are different listings.
