Default Tein S-Tech Fitment!

I have decided to go with the Tein S-Tech Lowering Springs for my Scion tC. I have searched and found some 07 S-Techs with 2.4 Front Drop and 2.0 Rear Drop for 150. Also I found some 05+ S-Techs with 1.7 Front 1.2 Rear for 125 ... which will look best!

I can help you put them on... I installed them on my tC (I'm in Tuscaloosa at UA but my house is in Birmingham)

Guess I should've said this, too...

I looked around any most shops wanted to charge what I thought was way too much for a job that, in retrospect, really wasn'y as bad as most people said.

Pics (crappy cameraphone pics):

I'll hop on after the Super Bowl if that's ok... I'm at a friend's room watching the game and he doesn't have AIM on the laptop I'm using.

Good, your loyalties lie in the right place... unlike some people in a certain car club I'm in.

Roll Tide!

... the s-techs are all the same...

are you confusing them with the h-techs that provide the shorter drop?

I was wondering when i read the first post. " I was like s-tech have never been 1" anything WTF."

But if you really want to know how both look right now, do a search for both. There's even a "show me your drop thread". If you don't mind the wait then I'm sure people will post up pics, now just isn't the optimum time. SUPER BOWL!!!! <----History is here!!!!

Oh and yeas Bama was good, but these days you guys just aren't rolling like you used to. I was going to ask you if you went to Hoover High, but then I read the SP part.
