I got mine with TRD installed today! Loving it! I'm a person doesnt like a big drop. But Scion makes the tC's wheel gap too wide, so I had to close it down a bit! TRD is the way to go, if not, u want bigger drop, go with Tein S-Tech!

I don't understand how a 2" drop can give you better comfort than stock. How does it feel over bumps / holes in the road?
Thanks to ScIenCE! *echo echo* and likely a progressive winding they do quite well normally. But if u hit a major bump or somehow bottom it you're still gonna feel it in your bum.

Are you guys that have the S techs still using the stock struts? Or did you upgrade/change them?

Let me chime in on this one if you dont have many miles on your stock struts you can use them... But they gonna go out pretty quick cuz there not made for the lower stance.

So thats why I always say just buy the springs and new struts now saves you time later installing new struts
