kyb agx or tokico blues?
i'm about to order very soon and these are the 2 i have narrowed down based on price and rep.
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

I got the KYB's on my '99SiR and they are very good shock but I have the Tokico Illumina's on my '91CRX and they are amazing... definately worth the money..... but KYB's are great for a budget.....
I had the Tokico Blues on my last CRX and they are not as nice as the KYB AGX. Tokico Blues are'nt as stiff as I would have liked... I would go with the KYB AGX's unless you have extra money around, cuz the Tokico Illumina's are superior.

go with the agxs, they r like a inexpensive alternative to tokico illuminas. the blues r stock replacements. i used to have illuminas, they ride very well, no compliants there, but now i got the yellows, the ride is better. :thumbup:

well a comfortable ride is the most improtant for me. do you think the blues will give an un-bouncy ride?

I've blown 3 sets of tokico blues in the rear on my del sol, and they won't warranty them anymore... I got the kyb's, and they've been great for the 4 months or so that I've had em!
