ive got them with tokico illumina struts, they are ok.... i havent really tried any other coilovers but i can tell you that their customer service sucks.
ive got one adjusting nut that is cross threaded on the sleeve and wont move. Ive tried getting replacement parts from them and they never return emails or phone calls.
