TRD springs dont do the tC any justice IMO

I would put some coil overs on it asap.

well i just ordered Konig rims, it should look even better, I'm thinking I "might" sell off my stock TRD rs 5.0 Rims, put them on ebay or sell them on here.

The BBK looks nice but it doesn't look right when you only have them in the front.It just looks weird with these HUGE A$$ brakes in the front and these little things in the back.Now get them in all four corners WOOOOW

Yea I know it looks a little offset but they only made the TRD BBK for the front so nothing much i could really do about it.

TuningVelocity do not sell those stock trd rs5.0 wheels. If you ever sell the car your going to regret it. I personally would take those anyday over Konig Hotswaps (blech...IMO). Anyways the ride is looking good. Nice idea to get the BBK with it. I would wait for the TRD springs to settle a lil. It should look nicer. But depending on what you wanna do later on coilovers would look good. But get an S2K antenna and some tint for starters as well as painting the rear calipers which you plan to do.
