    yo peepz...gonna get my tc in a few days. All you tein basic owners out there...hows the ride and how easy is it to adjust the height. I've never owned coil overs so im not exactly sure how you can lower it and stuff like that. And where is the best place to buy them online...or should i say the cheapest. Thanks for any input!

    I am not a kid, but I like the scion for many reasons...I have a 06 in silver, 5 sp. It is my daily driver. I also have a highly modded Mr2 turbo for those fun weekends with a new jspec drivetrain. That car rides stiff, but not really harsh. I would like to tighten up my tc, but don't want a harsh ride. Esp. important to me is not to feel those little, nagging vibrations on smooth roads. I don't mind a little stiffness over bumps...that is to be expected. The stock suspension rides pretty well, but gets kind of floaty on uneven roads and on turns. I heard good things about the tein basics....give me some feedback...be as descriptive as you can.

    Thanks

    It all depends on your usage. If you're going for show, then you would slam your car with the coilover. If you use and drive your car daily, I wouldn't recommend coilovers. If you dont adjust them right, you will suffer in alignment and faster wear and tear of your tires. For daily driving, I would recommend a regular lowering springs. Eibach Prokit is really great.
