Default Coilovers

I have a set of weapon r circuit pro coilovers on my teg right now. I just purchased tokico illuminas and was wondering if this setup would be unbearably to bouncy or if i should just bite the bullet and pick up a set of ground controls instead. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

my coilovers did not sit well on my illuminas. They rode like complete crap after the new shocks. I had crappy sprint coilovers. I ended buying eibach sportlines. I love them. Tokicos are extremely nice shocks.

go for the ground controls if you can afford them. No sense in going cheap on your suspension

I leaned that lesson. Spend the money and get the ground controls.

There are two off-the-shelf GC types: Special Edition and Koni yellow edition. The SE's are the ones on sale for $299 and work with most aftermarket shocks; the Koni yellow editions are designed to work with Koni yellows (of course) and have slightly higher springrates.

I would say the Special Editions would match better with your Illuminas.
