i wanna lower it a tab, but not to sure yet..its something about the camrys when u lower them, the wheels look bigger or is it just me?



thought about buying SE springs off a person on here for $100..still debating, does anyone know the lowering height difference?

se is too little. about half a inch, u won't notice it. get teins or coilovers. personally if u real baller get some spacers for major poke and run 225/45/17 rear and 215/45/17 like peachy did.

thats it? hows the ride..i love the ride in the XLE but no one's gonna sell their springs odviously but yeah i like how private's LE came out with coil overs but as far as ballin



im ballin on a budget lol..

Reply 4 : My 6th Gen LE..my laid back whip

lol. with coils ride is decent. once u get down to 18s on a 40 profile tire or 19s or 20s with low tires it's gonna start getting more harsh. love hurts. lots of people are surprised though how well my car drives on coils.

damn, u are right..pain is love

how many fingers can u fit under there lol?

Reply 6 : My 6th Gen LE..my laid back whip

lol im actually back to stock 16s. thursday im going to dealer to see if i really have a bad left rear hub bearing.



when i had works it was a very tight finger all around. almost hellaflush low. i have about 1/4 of a inch or 2 full threads before i max out my megan coils. i will max them out as soon as 16s are off the car again and i get new rear tires. they are shredded like crazy on the side from rubbing(even with fenders rolled) and the thread is messed up so they need to go.

Nuh that is true. Before i lowered my ride, even on lowering springs the wheels didnt look that big at all (considering that they were 19s). But once i slammed it they looked huge. Personally, 19s suit the camrys dumped on its ass perfectly.

If you lived closer to me (like in australia) id sell you my old lowering springs. But personally, go with coils. Once you go coils, you wont regret it.

Best comfort for springs is Teins. Its quite comparable to stock once it breaks in a bit. For comparisons of ride height you can look at my car since I'm on 3GS 17in rims...

Yo man im not gunna lie i am prolly going for coils soon and will be getting rid of my H&R springs on the SE KYB struts which would be great for your car and will make it just the height your lookin for I think and upgrade your struts which will be much better than lowering on the LE struts... plus direct bolt in seeing as they are already mounted

^^ your gunna want the KYB struts from what i hear lowering on any of the other struts can be a little sketchy and the springs really arnt a bad height..... here is some food for thought lol

Reply 14 : My 6th Gen LE..my laid back whip

You can't go wrong with KYB struts and lowered on Tein's.



Ebay has KYB's front and rear for a decent price, that's where I bought mine.
