Hello guys.
What would you recommend me for lowering the car? TRD or Tein Springs? or any other brand?
What's your opinions?

Thanks

My rule is if you already have interest in coilovers dont waste your money on springs, i had TRD and moved to Intrax before I eventually went with Megan coilovers. I regret the springs unless you like it only a little dropped. at the same time just save your money until you can get coilovers instead of having to pay for the spring set up and eventually have to pay again the full price of the coilovers which you should have saved for in the first place, the money for the spring set up puts you closer to coilovers, but buying springs setup puts you farther away from coilovers, because then you'd probably want to make your spring setup worth it and run it for years, and in the end you never get the coilovers or sell the car, whatever happens.
