What car model does the TEIN S.TECH Kit AGT20L fit?
This specific TEIN S.TECH lowering spring kit is explicitly designed for the second-generation Scion tC, which was sold in North America under the chassis code AGT20L. It will not properly fit the older first-generation Scion tC models.
How much does the TEIN S.TECH Kit lower the Scion tC?
The S.TECH spring kit provides a moderate drop to lower the vehicle's center of gravity, typically bringing the front down by approximately 1.8 inches and the rear by about 1.4 inches. This aggressive stance drastically reduces the ugly wheel gap found on stock tCs.
What are the performance benefits of installing TEIN S.TECH lowering springs?
By lowering the ride height and increasing the spring rate, these Japanese springs reduce body roll and improve high-speed cornering stability. Drivers will also notice a slightly firmer, more connected feel to the road, though it may introduce a slightly harsher ride.
Do I need new shocks when installing a TEIN S.TECH Kit on an AGT20L?
While S.TECH springs are engineered to work effectively with the factory OEM shock absorbers, they do shorten the suspension travel. If your Scion tC has high mileage or worn factory struts, it is highly recommended to upgrade to aftermarket performance shocks to prevent premature failure.
