Default Tokico Coilovers, yae or nae?

I'm looking for a suspension now and i was wondering if anyone here has the tokico coilover kit. the one that has the built in spring adjustment sleeve paired with tokico illumina 5 way shocks and how they like them, or IF they like them.

Also, does anyone know the spring rate for the tokico springs used in this app?

EDIT: did a search but couldn't find the exact spring rate, all i got was "something around 400lb/in" is it closer to 300 or closer to 500?

Never personally had them but I do have the illumina shocks paired up with skunk2 coilovers. Any spring\shock combo under a reputable name is usually going to give you a well balanced ride. If the price is right I give it a yae.

i see... so how do you like the setup? what settings do you roll around town on and does it bounce like evyerone says the skunk2s do?

The ride is somewhat bouncy but nothing crazy. I have my shocks set to 4 all the way around. Overall, I am happy with the setup

right now i am riding on illuminas and ground control coilovers. once i get it all set, and the corner weights were i want them it will be awesome. right now i just adjust it by eye, and it works pretty good. i cant imagine that gc and skunk 2 are that different. just dont use a real still shock setting with a low spring rate...
