Dont get me wrong, all of the cars in this post look awesome. I just dont think the TRD drop is aggressive enough. There seems to be too much space still b/w the top of the tire and bottom of the well. The Tein springs look nice. I forget, were there any Goldline springs posted? If not, does anyone have a pic with the goldlines?

dude i promise you that the ride is great, and the drop is a big difference. The pictures that all of us posted dont do any justice to the drop. when i got the spring and had my mechanic install them i wasnt expecting much, but 2in drop made a nice difference.

Um that would be a no. Make sure you bolted everything back in place. While your at it, I'd check the back too. Or it might be that your springs aren't seated properly.

That or I'd start by looking to see if your strut assembly is torqued down properly.

they're springs, by skunk2 and your right they arent for the tC...

dont get me wrong, but personally i like the tein s-tech drop, and the goldlines drop... it looks good and all, but theres still to much tire to fender gap for me.... i like no gap... like mines sit'n.....

I think it is enough. It is a respectful drop other then getto.

When you say the Ride is great, is it pretty much like stock. The only concern i have is that the ride might be really rough with the stock struts. oh yah did you leave your stock struts on with the S-Techs???
