    Glad I found this post. I am also interested in the NHW20 lowered w/ coilovers on some nice Advan, Volk, or maybe some BBS LM wheels. Can you share the link to the Japanese websites w/ these modded cars?

    Thanks for those links, I think 20s are a little too big, makes the Prii look like it's off-roading.

    I'm waiting for the coilovers I ordered (my friend told me that it's already on the container from japan and it might arrive it 2 weeks time)... will post pics as soon as I get them installed

    I will dive into modding the Prius more once I finish my MR2. Can only mod one car at time. ;)

    Superior Auto Creative has a white Prius w/ SSR Type F wheels on it. Check their site for pictures.

    Bino: Did you order those from Tanabe USA or through Tanabe Japan?

    would lower the PRIUS like the other springs available in the market today.... about 25-30mm.... but i prefer the NF coilovers... it gives a beautiful drop....
