Car Feels Bumpy
#21
The TRD springs and struts will make the ride smoother.
It does feel stiffer, but in a good way. More even and smoother.
However, tires also make a huge difference.
I have some Kumho radials on my car right now, and I can't stand them. I hate the 'floating over the road' feeling, and they are way too 'bouncy' for my taste.
But, if you like a cushy ride, why not get some non-sport, or higher profile tires?

High Profile Tires = Ugly?
Will the thicker 50 tires look ugly on the TC? Does anyone have a pic of a TC with the higher profile tires?
If it does.. then i'll look into the TRD springs/struts as a stand alone option and hope it works. I dont want my car to look like a corolla! LOL
Oh and even if I get the higher profile.. why would i want to then lower the car?

Handling, and looks. The tC is pretty top-heavy, so lowering the car (within reason) helps cut down on 'body roll'--the way the whole car tips to the side during cornering.
It's not necessary, it just makes a difference. And with stock rims on a higher profile tire, I can't see it rubbing. The TRD drop is really subtle.
