for me i wish i had gotten 215/40/18 cause i need a little bit more clearance simce im dropped lower. but with htechs i think 235/35/18 would look nice

No idea on that fitting a tC, I'm only replying about tire sizes for the wheel.

deja: im on Tein SSP's.. with about -1.7 fronts and -3.4 backs. Im wanting to get form and function type 2s soon and i would need to first sell my coils to do so (in the classifieds section :@] ) then after imma put my camber at 1.5-6 and 3.0
and as for rubbing, i rolled my rear fenders and had to trim some stuff and took out the fender liner in the back so no rubbing at the moment with that..and fronts im only rubbing on the fender liner (only on medium/big dips) which im taking out soon when i get the new coils.
hks: thanks, yeah they are nexens..they are decent and get the job done i guess lol

haha looks like you started a trend
I'm still debating on what wheel setup I want when I can get my rims but your old one sounds perfect to me so far..but it won't be grids or rotas I can say that much ![Smile](https://www.scionlife.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I also won't be as low..even if I do decide to go the coilover route....
