eh, I have trd springs with trd shocks. I think that's already pretty stiff, but then again I live in WI where the roads are horrible too. Every time I drive my dad's Lexus LS and go back to my tC, I feel every bump on my tC.

S-techs have different spring rates making them stiffer, plus having them on stock struts that are not designed for it will make for a stiffer ride. Add in horrible roads and you have a very crappy ride.

oh wow for real well as far as the stock shocks being a POS lol has came to my attention now lol but do u think lets say TRD shocks for example would it make it stiffer or would it slightly relieve that feeling of the car falling apart on your head

My current suspension setup is TRD shocks with Tein H-Techs. The ride is so much smoother, more responsive and less bouncy than stock but the H-Techs themselves have a softer spring rate than S-Techs. No doubt your car will feel better but with springs as low as your S-techs and being the spring rate that those are setup to be your going to be sacrificing some ride comfort looks. Other than that you should be upgrading your shocks anyways. It'll make a difference. Trust me.
