you won't have any problems if you aren't going to lower it. there are a few people on here with the 30 series and with coil overs and don't have a problem. and the off set should be fine. it will lift your car an inch or so.

why would you want put 20's on a tc?

anyway, i thought you couldn't fit bigger than a 19 on the tc, still over sized wheels are lame.

Over-sized...on a tC? Nah, over-sized would be 22s!! OR 24s on a tC!!!

To each his own man, but its not lame IMO...it's just...DIFFERENT!! Pushing the envelope is one of the reasons why some people buys Scions (besides the price)...it's fun standing out and being unique...as long as you do it right (no fender rolling/EXTREME body modification)...then I think it's cool...but that's just my 2 cents....

GO BIG OR GO GOME!! lol...

yeah, the coilovers will be the next BIG upgrade for me next summer, hopefully...I've been thinking of baggin' it though...it's my Daily Driver, so I'm not sure how reliable that setup would be EVERYDAY....but we'll see....
