Although there not on ebay right now, you can get a Tokico Blue set of struts for $320 shipped

And for springs, the more aggressive drop would be Teins on ebay for $155 shipped.

There is really no reason to buy a "combo" set on ebay, its not like they include strut mounts and will be eaiser to install. The Tokico and Tein set is a tried and true method of lowering your car...

Misc.
Kybs are said to just be stock replacements and arent as stiff as the Tokico, but deff not as stiff as TRDs struts, which you probally cant find anymore.

I saw numerous members with the vogtland setup, just curious for opinions is all. I was actually bound for the Tokico HP's but if they're as stiff as everyone says they are it might not fair too well in my region. I'm not looking for an overly aggressive stance 1"-1.5" is actually perfect for my situation. The snow is coming...I might have my own personal snow plow if my car is dropped any more than that haha.
