As the subject stated.... any advice on some springs that will drop my tC a few inches and not drain my wallet?

A FEW inches? There isn't that much room to go, man! Lowest springs (and Cheapest) springs are the Tein S-Techs. They've got a 2.4" drop in the front and a 2.0" drop in the rear..... that's really low because you're gonna scrape on almost anything.

i guess a "few" was the wrong word to use. I dont want to live my life in fear of speedbumps and potholes. I just want the drop to be noticeable and i dont want to invest in a poor product.

tein s-techs. its what i run and its a 2 front 2.4" drop. best drop and cheapest quality part. Just make sure to buy the actual tein product not the tein rip offs

The S-Techs are too low for my taste. It all depends on where you live. I'm running on TRD's which are settled really low..... it's a good drop.

Ditto.
If you can swing it, the springs and shocks make for a pretty entertaining drive.

I just put Tanabe DF210's on my tC this week. Drops it 2 inches, and looks sweet! Not such a low drop that I hit anything, but noticeable. They were $169, and we did the install ourselves, (with use of a local shop for the spring compressor) to save the install dollars. Didn't take too long either!

STechs are too low for my liking, personally.
