Im thinking of lowering my car next and I was wondering which springs i should get. I want to lower it between 2-2.5 inches. I heard H&R is a good company, if any of you guys have your cars lowered around 2 inches or have H&R springs. Some info or tips would be helpful, thanks.

moved...

My boy just dropped his tC on Goldline springs and is running 19's! Hasnt rubbed yet, and handles nice. Goldline gives a 2" drop front and rear! Good price too! I even have them on my xb and i love them! Its the exact same setup as this one.

From the rims to the tires to the springs! He has a twin! Except that my boys is Black!lol Alex thanks man!

goldlines, 2" all the way around 165.00 shipped to your door. Bill

dont get sprint cuz i dont like them, i had goldlines on my civic and loved them.... cant go wrong with them.. i may switch...

i hear good things about goldlines and tien S. im thinking Tien S. i dont want a full 2" drop. looking for 1.5"-1.8" if i have to go the 2" thats cool also

all this good talk about goldlines... i'm in the market to get lowering springs too. Would i need new shocks also? about how much would that run? and what's the best place to get the goldlines springs (and possibly shocks?) a link would be helpful!

Thanks in advance

stick to trd, there drop is perfect imo w/ out giving a harsh ride

tein gives a very nice drop

What kind of wheels are those in the pic?

They look like these:

But going to the AXIS site - I dont see the same exact ones...similar but not exact although they look like the ones in the pic there. Aren't tCs also 5x110? - Ebay ones look like a good deal.

Yes those are them! I dont want to say a whole story on them cause i might not know the whole thing but they are Jaz wheels now! Or should i say they WERE jaz wheels? I dont know im confused!lol :lalala:

the factoy shocks on the tc are actually holding up pretty nice... and my drop is probably the lowest out there.... when i had the factory tires on i had a smooth ride, since i moved to the lo pros the the ride has been a lil rougher....

I have Gold Lines and they are awesome. I recommed them. Check out my TC in the Gallery, just type in my Name on there.

goldline is an okay spring. i wouldnt recommend sprints,and im actually not fond of the Tein S-tec, its not a good sport spring. it was machined for cost effectiveness and looks. not ride quality or performance. stick with TRD. they were made by eibach. cant go wrong there.

is that so? :question: i've only heard good things about the tein s-tech's, at least when it comes to ride quality.

Sprints sag too much in the back.. and i am scarping on anything imaginable.
Will the goldline's have a higher clearance all around than springs?

Where can i purchase these goldlines for 150 shippped?

I haven't had any experience with lowering springs before, so I need some good advice. Are there any lowering springs in the market that can lower your tc AND make the ride better than if you stuck with the stock springs? I would like to lower my tc a little bit, but would like the ride to be smoother as well. Was thinking of getting the TRD springs but I'm not sure exactly how that would improve/stiffen the ride.

anyone have a side-view pic of a tC with the TRD springs (1" drop)? I have until tomorrow to add any options to my ride and have it included in the payments.
having trouble deciding since I don't know how low it really looks.

Any spring kits that aren't progressive??

I just put TRD springs on my TC over the weekend. ( 125 for springs/ 80 bucks installed)The ride is just as good as it was before the drop imo. Alignment is still perfect too. i recommend these springs if your concerned with ride quality.. the drop could be a little more tho, im gonna get some 18" wheels...that will make it look better. hopefully the springs will settle a lil more in the front.

I saw that tC pulling into the parking lot at the Gallaria Mall the other weekend! It's a total head turner! I did a triple take. Seeing that car is what made me decide to get the tC instead of a used MR2 Spyder! Nice work, specialist.
