#2341, "Tokico Blues & Focuz Coilovers"




          

I just ordered Tokico's for my car and I was wondering how well they will perform with a 2" drop.

they will perform great but you are .25" past the allowable level of drop on them, so you arent covered by the lifetime warranty. focus coilovers huh? sorry to hear that, dont ya love em'

forgot to mention though, your car won tbe lowered now because the spring perches arent removeable on the tokicos. so if you want to be lowered withthem youll have to get the perches ground off

I hate my Tokico Blues on my 2g with Eibach Sportlines. I had a better set up with some KYBs on my 1g. Return them blues if you can!

Why didn't you like them? Was the setup too stiff? I've heard that the Tokico blues are one of the most popular struts for our cars.

I don't think they are stiff enough. They feel only slightly stiffer than stock. The ride is more comfortable, I have to give it that, but it felt like the KYBs performed better.
