#13793, "Tokico illuminas and spring set"




          

Just wondering if anyone has experience with the tokico illumina adjustable shocks and tokico spring combo. My biggest concern is the ride quality. In addition, how would you guys say this combo compares to that of the illuminas with prokits or sportlines? Thanks for all the help guys.

well I have the illuminas with Nuespeed sports and the ride is great. It can get a little harsh at times, but I have the struts set at 4 up front and 5 in back

I would imagine that the ride would be fairly good. This is due to the fact that they would definately be able to engineer the springs and the shocks to work as a matching pair since they make both. Just my opinion. I actually was going to go this direction, but the site that I ordered from was unable to stock the Tokico springs so they shipped Eibach pro-kits for the same low price.

I have them
i just put them in last week
the ride quality is near stock with the shocks set at 1, but if you stiffen them up they do get bumpy, but they handle great, I would recommend them, the springs were designed for the shocks and vice versa, so they work very well together.
