So here are some more pics of the new setup... some people wanted to see some better wheel gap pics.

NOTE: I'm running 225/45 tires, so the sidewall is a tiny bit larger than stock on my tires. So it probably looks lower by wheel gap than it actually is. I would use the ground as a reference.

Ya, the Race ones are probably a half inch lower. I forget the actual numbers.

So... I'm stuck between getting H&R sport springs or Tien H-techs.... I know the H-techs is a perfect lower... but I really don't want to go too low in the front... so thats why I'm really considering the H&Rs... do they really only give a 1.4" drop, because thats about what i want. It just bothers me that the description for the H&R are...
H&R Sport Springs 05-up Scion TC $219.00

The most popular spring in H&R's line-up, Sport Springs will lower your vehicle an average of 1.5 - 2 inches (depending upon the make and model of your vehicle) ...

So how much of a drop are the H&R Sports exactly... or is it really based on which make and model?

Also, anyone happen to know the apring rates on the tiens and the h&r?

Thanks

If you look at what we have said, h-techs are not a "perfect drop".

You can see most of the rates and heights here:

Well... everyone has their own opinions... but when I said, "perfect drop"... I meant it appearance wise.
Thanks for the spring rate page!
