Just installed springs and sway.... wheels next

So I just had my springs and sway bar installed this week. Here are some before and after pix. The drop is on Hotchkis springs with a TRD sway bar. So now I was leaning towards the enkei FN-18's. Anyone have a pic of a tC with them on?

much better, they should settle a bit more in the rear. I would actually vote for some enkei evo5 or evo6. are you going to stick with 17s?

Looks good.

To keep the red theme going, paint your calipers also.
Plus, red calipers (or any other color for that matter) will show off your new rims niooocely.

Yeah. I am thinking caliper paint when I get the new rims. Get it all done in one day while I have the rims off. Did you guys have to remove the calipers or just paint while it was on the car.

paint it while in the car. just put newspaper and tape the area surrounding area so no overspray will get on.
