there is no "best"

its all a mattor of opinion and how you drive...

what will suit you best depends on what sort of driving you are doing...

Öhlins... if they made them for the tC.

Like DonNguyen said, it depends on what characteristics you're looking for. Are you going for looks? Price? Ride comfort? Damper adjustments (assuming you know what you are adjusting)?

again...depends on what sort of performance you're looking for...

different types offer different performance....

are you planning on tracking it, mountain runs, or just enthusiastic lane changes?

you should be fine with lowering springs, they are stiffer than stock and a lot cheaper than coilovers..

i dont understand why people would think they need coilovers if they arent doing anything more than enthusiastic lane changes...
