now is the kyb a better set of shocks for 40 dollars more than the tokicos?
tokico charges almost twice as much for their shocks to be adjustable. i dont' know if this mean they make a better shock/strut than kyb or what 
tokico blue- about 280
kyb agx- about 330
(why such a big differnece?)
tokico ilumina- about 4xx
tokico blue is a OEM replacement. the shocks will not last long on drops that are 1.5 inches or more.
KYB AGX are externally adjustable. they are better for the buck...but their waranty does not guarantee drops more than 1.5 inches.
the Tokico Illumina and the Koni Sport (yellow) can handle more extreme drops (2+ inches). they are made to withstand sport/performance applications. ....hence the higher price.
