Default which are better: tokico illumina or kyb agx shocks?

which are better? why are the tokico's signifigantly higher priced? i used to have the kyb agx's on my accord and they seemed like they did the job well, but i have nothing to compare them to. if they were the same price, which one would you get? are the tokico's woth the extra $100 or so ?

dont forget you void the warranty on the kyb agx's if u lower the car more than 1.5" than stock height or plan on riding w/some coilovers

i consider agx's the bang-for-the-buck adjustables, that perform well as long as you arent dropped too much. If you are gonna pay the extra 100$ for illuminas, you might as well go for the koni yellows.

Pay a bit more for the Koni Yellows.

Not being able to lower >1.5" really is a turnoff which keeps me from buying the KYB AGX.

Same exact way I feel about the Tokicos and the KYB's.
