Default GC coilovers and Tokico blues

How is this combo? and the ride? also how are the coilovers adjusted? my friends say coilovers make the ride soft...

stiffness has nothing to do coilover sleeves. if having sleeves made your ride soft then that would imply that the sleeves themselves flex or give which most everyone would agree is rediculous. ride stiffness is primarily determined by sring rate and dampening. With GC's you can specify what rates you want. I don't know anything about the tokico's though. I'd recommend Koni Yellows (hint see my sig).

Tockico blues can't handle anything more than 1.5 inch drop or sleeve coilovers.

Go with Illuminas or Konis, but when considering Konis look into Apexi WS real coilovers. It'll cost about the same.
