    Hello Gen 4 owners
    I'm wanting to lower my Gen4 Prius 1.5 to 2 inches.

    Anybody done it.

    I'm discovering lowering said amount is not available.

    I lowered mine 1" with lowering springs. I would not want more than that myself - it becomes inconvenient...

    Mine was lowered by 30mm/25mm. So almost 1.2in in the front. I didn't have any issues. Car felt nice and only large spacing on the road would create a large thud. But I think stock would bounce more. I think the drop was pretty good. I went with coilovers because I wanted just a little more drop.

    First pic is in Tein H. Tech lowering springs. Second is with Tein Flex A coilovers. Not sure how much lower I am on the coilovers compared to stock 20200828_163732.jpeg 20200920_112322.jpeg
