hi, i got a gen 2 solara...but cna't decide which springs to get...the TRD and EIBACH both drop 1.2 in front and 1.4 in back.....i'm also dinking abotu just using springs ....i'm not gonna get any struts/shocks......i checked TOKICO and they didn't even make them for the gen 2 solara...so i guess all i can do is get springs now...........can you guys tell me which one is better and how does it feel to drop the car just with springs alone ?...thank you

not worth it to drop the car without doing struts. You'll blow out stock struts in 5-15k miles if you use lowering springs.

TRD vs Eibach is the same difference, whichever one is cheaper
