Default tokico struts and springs

Anoyne:

I am going to buy a set of tokico adjustable strut and coil spring combo for my eg hatch.
Three questions:
1. Anyone has these and if you do, how is the ride? I do not want to end up with a bouncy car, I drive this car daily and I saw someone passing me the other day in a hatch that looked like it was riding on pogo sticks. I will lower the car about 1.5" as it is already lower with the current set of wheels.

2. I am sure that I will end up with negative camber since I already installed a set of 15" Koning wheels. The stock wheels were 13". Anyone knows where to get a kit to correct this?

3. Finally, anyone knows where I can get a great price on the tokicos?
Thanks

pricenton FL? Princeton NJ...
anyway, check out coximports.com for the shocks got a set there a while back. I have a 1.5" drop and have done nothing about the camber, but try the skunk 2 camber corrector (thingie) friend -743- has them.

tokico illumina 5-way adjustable shocks are NICE
I have them on my hatch and there is no bouncy ride at all, I just love the 5 way damper settings!!
Ebay or groupbuycenter is the cheapest place to buy!
