KYB vs Tokico
For the shocks to go with my Eibach sportlines, should i go with KYB NON-Adjustables or Tokico Premiums? I have heard that Tokico's are better, but the price difference is about $100. Will I sacrifice the ride that much by going with the KYB? Quick Sidenote,i plan on getting 18 inch wheels shortly after i get my springs and shocks installed.

I just got my Eibach Pro-kit and I was wondering which shocks will be the best?
1. Koni (yellow)
2. Tokico Illumina
3. KYB AGX
How much does installation run for springs/shocks?

I've got the KYB adjustibles. I have no problems so far. An occassional "thump", when I go over a large pothole or when coming out of "high" driveways...

Hey casper98cl do you have a camber kit on yours. I have the pro kits and want to get the sportlines, I have heard you dont need it for either, I have 18's and it may rub, I am getting it checked out tomorrow to see if it rubs.</STRONG>

i've read about people saying that if you get the sportlines, the ride will be a little rougher. Now if i were to go and get the tokico 5 way adjustables, would that improve the ride quality at all??
