Hey guys... and girls =)
I want to lower my tC. I've been told to go Eibach. And seeing how I know nothing about suspension... that's what I've been looking at. Does anyone know the difference between the Eibach Pro-kit and the SportLine springs? Any recommendations? I want to close the fender gap and clean it up a bit, not slam it to the ground. I have the stock rims and tires, and was wondering if companies like Skunk 2 or just TRD would be better? Any info or opinion would help greatly. TY!!!

hey man. I've heard great things about eibach and am about to buy a kit and put on my Tc. So, that's what I'm going with.

I believe the TRD springs are the Eiback prokit. Good stuff and a beautiful drop.
And they are cheap too, $159 on trdsparks.com

You're still gonna get a tiny bit of wheel gap in the rear with s-techs.. Get Tanabe DF210s.

^i actually ran tanabe nf210's and was more than satisfied with the ride, however i did have h-techs originally and the few inches in drop made a world of a difference as far as looks, just didn't feel as stiff as the tanabes...

TRD's are good, nice drop and it also helps if you plan on putting on a kit. I'm putting my kit on soon and so far the measurements allow me a decent drop and i shouldn't scrap every bump in the road.
I say go for what you like.

Hey everyone! Im new to the forum. Im lowering my Tc tonight. I've helped lower a few of my friends cars before and its always a little different with each car. I already have the springs and the compressor. I was wondering if there was any suggestions or anything I needed to know before I get in there? Thanks in advance!!!
