Re: Ebay: Tokico shocks (ThatsTheTruth)
the general concensus is that the Tokico HP's, Blues as we call them, are little more than OEM replacements despite their advertising. they dont offer much of a performance increase over stock, and dont hold up well to high spring rates.
ive read somewhere, i cant for the life of me find the page or any substantiation to this, but ive read that the springs are manufactured by eibach which if correct would put them at a higher quality level than the shocks they accompany. again, i have not been able to verify this so dont take it as fact.
as a means to a cosmetic drop those should be fine. i doubt the spring rates are very high, so they should produce a pretty comfy ride, but at the same time, wont offer much of a performance increase.
