I have also heard down the grape vine that pedders were crappy springs. I used King Springs, they were only about 20-25mm lower (which is what I wanted) and I like them. They aren't too hard but still just stiff enough for better handling.

Well I got a set of Jumboz in my Ae82 there pretty good, two and a half at the front and two inch at the rear. They pretty much do whatever height you want.

Darola: was that $200 for the components alone, ie, did u do it yourself??

how much extra would a workshop charge for the work??

Stick to the Kings springs. Ive never had a problem with them. But find out what everyone else is using in their corollas and if there happy with them
