By the way, my car will go quite a bit lower than this in the rear with the LPs.

For anyone trying to go lower, you can remove the collars on the coils for an extra drop.

What do you mean by performance? Are you looking to reduce body roll and increase handling? If that's what you're mainly looking for then TRD Sways is what you want, not coils.

By Performance meaning: You can only lower a car soo much before the geometry starts to work against itself and handling gets worse. I know what sway bars do thanks.

I was slammed on my coils and my handling was fine. It was a legit question to ask, you weren't clear on what you wanted to know or what you were looking for. You first question was to broad, no need to get smart.
