Anyone have these shocks with GC's on there 96-97 Accord? How is the ride? Hows the ride compared to stock? and if u have this combo are you satisfied with the ride? Thanks for your help

 

tokico shocks are a must to any drop. springs or coilovers

unless its full coilovers like Apexi WS or NEX

 

I have KYB's and i love 'em...

 

Anyone with Tokico's have any comments? Thanks

 

i had em with sportlines and the ride was nice i wouldnt put them on coilovers though cause theyll blow...guaranteed... now i have ground controls and koni yellows...now those are excellent shocks and although im slammed about 3" my ride is very nice

good luck and IMO save for better shocks

 

I have blues with Skunkworks coilovers-3 years now. Never been very happy with the ride, kinda bouncy. Im only dropped like 2 inches. I really wouldnt know what to compare it to. I would love to ride in a 4th gen with a different setup and compare.

I guess if I were to buy replacements, which is eminent, I'll go with yellows or illuminas for the adjustability.

if you can afford it get better shocks.
the blues aren't bad but they are not nearly as good as the adjustable shocks (tokico illuminas, koni yellows, or kyb agx). I have been on them for nearly 4 years without a problem with about a 2.5-3 inch drop, but i would love to upgrade to better..

 

i've got blues with GC's that I've been using for a few years now. The ride is soft as **** (esp for havin 19's). Personally if i could go back and re-buy shocks, I would definitely just get some KYB AGX's... good, cheap, adjustable.

I would agree that the ride tends to be slightly bouncey but i think that just be my struts wearing out and only on certain bumps. For daily driving on some progressive/conservative springs these things are good and comfortable, but on a stiff spring (esp condom coilovers), they really can't dampen enuf to give u the ride u want.

They're basically the sh|tiest shocks u can get with aftermarket springs.

tokico blues = crap


kyb agx, biltstein and koni yellow are some of the best out there.


actually, koni yellow IS the best.:thumbup:

 

I've had the blues for about 3 years now and the ride is a little bouncy but I can't complain...good, cheap shocks...what are u supposed to expect from pay 260 for shocks installed? Overall, I am happy with them...
