well, that depends on how wide they are. If they are like a 9 wide, then the 235/35 would look stretched like that.

hey blue...how is the ride on those KSports? And is the stiffness adjustable, or just the height?

meaty: they are great! i cant complain much. damper, height, and spring compression are all adjustable. if i come by your town with my car, ill let you know so that you can drive it and have a first hand experience of it. just got to warn you though, i tend to ride on the slightly stiff side... but to me it feels like its just lowered on eibach pro-kit springs.

Thanks for the info Mr Meaty, I am kinda surprised those are Hotchkis. Some Hotchkis springs I've seen do the same thing as the TRD and look higher in the front. I am glad they are working for you. Too bad I am not in the "702" to check it out, oh pooh!

damn nice, juice! Where did you get those skunk coils, how much, and did you have to mod them at all to get them to fit?

sup! thanks for the comment...i picked them up of a guy on ebay. they did'nt sell, so he sold them to me for 85$ shipped, they retail for almost 400$!!!!And they were new still in the box in the plastic bags!!! lol...no modifications b/c they fit on your stock struts...i have the front adjusted all the way down and it actually rides better then my progress i had before. well worth the 85$ i would suggest aftermarket struts/shocks. i baught koni yellows for the tc, and they work great!!! very pleased.......joooc

NICE! I found these:
http://www.hopupracing.com/skadcokitce2.html for about $300 Are those the ones you got?
And do you think there is an issue with them on the tC since the tC weighs more then the celica? i already got Koni's on.
