Does anyone have Tokico Illumina Shocks & Springs? If so how do you like them? How is the ride.

i bought them last week but i wont put them on until this sunday.
i will let you know soon.

Thanks man, I am curious to how they are. Looks like a great deal

I bought the same kit on Ebay. I put them on Wednesday along with some much needed new susp. bushings (Hyperflex). So far I'm quite impressed, They are a PITA to adjust in the car but it can be done. The handling in awesome!!!!! The ride is firm but not harsh. I expect them to mellow a bit after they break in. One thing that is not in the kit is the top hats. Be very carefull if you try to take the old ones apart yourself! I took all 4 old ones to the local tire and brake shop and had them compress and remove the top hats for me, they only charged me $20 to do all 4. One snag is I have a couple spring squeeks. I'm told that will go away as the system seats itself. So to answer your question....so far both thumbs up!

Tokico Springs are junk as far as springrates... so close to stock.

253f/123r

Especially those rears... CRAP!

Stock are 212f/117r btw.

So they're giving giving you an EVEN MORE FRONT BIASED springrate than stock!! WTF?!

damn. that really is whack.-whered you get those #'s from?
are those the same as the hp package rates?

thanks for the insight. I am gonna stay away from these then

I have them on a del Sol. Then again my car is lighter than the Integra. I agree it's not the setup to have if you want a corner carver. I on the other hand like it cause it's not such a harsh ride like my Skunk2's and Illuminas.

I have a set of illumina springs/shocks kit from Tokico. The handling is much better than stock and it doesn't ride as harshly. I don't know about the HP's.. but the illuminas are great. Off ebay I got them for $460. Not a bad deal considering i get a 5-way adjustable strut
