Nice drop.

2 things improve the look of a TL dramatically: a drop and the A-Spec kit. You're 1 for 2. When's the kit coming?

Looks good, but...Tokicos aren't meant to handle anything more than a 1.5" drop.

Should've gone with Koni Yellows.

Thanks for the comment but I'm not new to the HP's, I used them on my Accord with Skunk2 sleeves dropped 3" and ran them for a year with no problems before I sold the car. They'll handle the drop just fine, I wouldn't have got them if I didn't know they would.

Not saying they can't handle the drop, even your OEM struts can handle the drop, but they're gonna wear prematurely.

A simple google search will tell you that the tokico's are more of an OEM replacement that are only good for sport springs (1.5") or less.

Ask excelerate, he'll tell you the same thing.

Not trying to knock you are anything, but that's one of the main reasons I went with the konis over the tokicos. I'm just a spreader of information...
