Hmm looks almost flush, would it be tucked with the stock 17" rims? Also would it hurt to ride on stock shocks with them? Also, are the springs progressive?

no..it's an older pix i posted. and i'm taking my spoiler off this weekend for the final touches before heading into production for the TRF spoiler. The rain has delayed the whole process.

here's a pic with the stock tC rims i took awhile back..

Hard to tell, but how tucked is the rear wheel? The Front one looks fine.

I just installed my goldlines this weekend and I really like the look so far and the ride is great with my stock struts still but I have one issue - My drivers rear is sitting a little lower than the other corners, but my hope is it will settle out with time...?

Oh, and another questions - Neither the paperwork or the website makes no mention of cutting the bumpstops and says if the car isnt listed it isnt necessary/reccomended to cut them so I left them stock. I thought that was odd with the amount of drop though... I havent driven on them a whole lot yet but I havent bottomed out so I must be OK I guess.

Alex - did you cut your bumpstops?

yeah... mine was cut about half . Usually it's recommended that any lowering of more than 1.8 inches to have the bump stop cut in order to avoid "bottoming out." To be honest, I am not sure wit the tC though. However, in my case... i did cut them.

stock struts should be fine...

i've had mine since August and put on about 8,000 miles with it. Have no problem so far...

just as recommendation...cut the front bump stops ..about 2/5th of it.
