    Bro, coilovers ARE springs&shocks. That's why I said springs&shocks.

    Nobody calls them springs and shocks DAB. If springs and shocks are springs and shocks... then what are springs and shocks and how do you tell them apart if they're both called springs and shocks? DAB

    lol two hummerfaces. Coilovers are a specific combination of springs and shocks, so I was being more general. What else was I gonna call it, suspension? I didn't say coilovers because they really aren't necessary. Most people don't have them (can't afford them). I didn't have coilovers on my Corolla, and I had no need for them.

    You said you didn't need coilovers on the corolla, but your ride height disagrees with you.

    The ride height has nothing to do with it? The Corolla was light, small, and nimble enough that it didn't need super-stiff coilovers to blast around curves. The IS was way too heavy feeling, so I went with coilovers after the springs didn't work.

    I wasn't meaning anything about performance. It was strictly a SUV height joke.

    I don't think that bar would work well for your Corolla. I'd get a TRD version
