The Koni's are the way to go unless you go with full coilovers. I'd take the Tokico Illumina's over the KYB's any day.

Yeah performance-wise, the Illuminas are better than the KYB's but you can't beat the KYB's for their price :thumbup:

I believe that Tokico Illumina's have a lifetime warranty as well, but I could be wrong. I would definantely match any adjustable shock with and adjustable coil-over. I've heard a lot of good things about the Illumina/GC setup.

They do, as long as you don't lower them more than 2 inches. I think the same goes with the AGX's, but I've heard from retailers they tend to lose their ride quality a lot faster than the Tokico's.

Wheres the Bilsteins at?

Nobody here uses Bilstein? Good lord my Bilsteins rule. Theyre not adjustable but I lowered 1.4 front and 1.2 rear and it handles like an M3 on steroids.
