#27320, "Tokico Illuminas and Eibach Sportlines?"


          

i was looking into some shocks for my car that would work good with the sportline springs. anybody have this combo or one that is better in their opinion? im not looking to spend a fortune on shocks, i just want something that wont be too rough and will not blow in like a month.

I had that combo, just recently sold it. Loved them. Sold it because im selling the car and people didnt like the idea of it being lowered. I had one setting and i left it- if i remember correctly i did the middle setting on the shocks. I loved the ride- not too harsh, not too soft.

I've got the Blues and the Sportlines. I've had them for almost 4 years. The Sportlines are definately way too low, if I had to do it again I would either get a complete set of Teins or go for the H&R springs and Koni adjustable shocks.

I've got illuminas w/ sportlines. I love them!!! It seems to be the perfect height too (I have 17's). Just make sure you get camber kits for the front and rear.

I agree with 1512. Get konis. I have them with sportlines and they are smooth as hell!
