#22244, "Tokico blues vs. illumina"


          

I don't know too much about suspensions. From ebay I can get the illuminas for $380 shipped, and $230 shipped for the blues. I know one is ajustable one isn't. What other reasons are there why I should get the illuminas? How is the ride quality with both, also handling? Is it really worth $150 more to get adjustable. Oh yea BTW I got the H&R Race Springs. What would the best combo be?

Thanks

i personally got the illuminas...i got mine off of planetperformance.com for 107 or something.... you can buy them individually and possibly just get the front two adjustable, and the back two the blues.... my ride quality is great with the illuminas

I just switched from the blues to the Illuminas...no comparison so far. The Illuminas are sweet...



weather turning towards a storm broken down road continue on coexistance imitating paradise
unlike any seen moist has been dancing crazy overcast ash grey wording constantly pushing pulling pushes away

sacred? you really are?
m'not scared
then what are you?

drew back a rusty knife guilt ladle pour it on understand i burn inside how to get out of here how do you get out of this natures revenge nature
cage craving wonder the worth of it scream at the top of your lungs so many times tried not to wonder

The life time warranty of the illuminas is enough to make me partial. Has someone mentioned adjustable shocks own in racing?

Illuminas are height adjustable and stiffness adjustable? I heard these are the best with Eibach pro kits?
