Default koni's or tokico's

I know that the Koni yellow's are considered the best. But I don't really need the adjustibilty. I don't know too much about the Tokico's though. Are the Blues any good or am I better off getting the Koni's. It's for a daily driven '99 LS and I don't really see any track use.

I have Tokico blues,

Check out myspace in my sig for pics of the setup,

Are you lowered? what kinda of springs/coilovers?

I dont track but I wish I had saved up and got the koni yellows,

Even if you dont need the adj. or use your car for track.
Koni Yellows have Full Life time warrentee, how can you beat that?

I'm saving up for Koni yelllows and GC coilovers,


Do it right the first time and you wont have to spend even more.

I used to have the tokico blues and all I can say is , I have now upgraded to the koni yellows and there is such a BIG difference between the two. I never used my car for track use either but the tokico's never really felt stable when driving, freeway or street. IMO save up for koni's, you wont regret it...
