Kyb or Tokico????

[spudz904]

I went down to the shop to get a quote for some tokico blues and eibach sportlines. The guy told me that tokico was way to stiff and i wouldn't have good ride quality. He suggested that i get kyb agx struts with the sportlines. I want about a 1.5 to 2 inch drop(about 2 finger gap or a lil less). I use the car as a daily driver but i do want a some performance for spirited driving. Looking for something NEAR(i kno i won't get oem quality) oem ride quality. 2001 honda civic ex coupe 205/45/17 Any suggestions on what i should get? kyb agx or tokico? On a side note.....i'll prolly be moving to colorado soon....like pike's peak area. Is a lowered car gonna go alright in snow or rough roads? I haven't even seen snow fall in my life

Give us some time bro.

AGX will be stiffer than blues because blues are OEM replacements

Tokico Blues = KYB GR-2
AGX are adjustable. If you want a daily driver, then stick with Blues or GR-2s that are nonadjustable and cheaper.

thanks. Do the tokicos perform better than the oem struts?

I have a similar question also... I'm thinking about getting some Tokico Blues... the thing different are the springs... What do ya'll think KSport springs? I was thinking about Tein S. Tech's, but heard KSport was pretty good... my car is a daily driver. Help please?

tokico boy tokico ! limited lifetime warranty. Tein or eibach spring.

[Spikez1222]

Alright thanks, Tokico it is... Eibach's are a bit pricey compared to other springs... between those 2, I'll go and get the Tein's... BUT what I really want to know, are about KSports springs...

for a great ride, choose Pro-Kit Springs and Tokico Blues, Pretty much OEM quality ride, but a more agressive stance

[Spikez1222]

So from many people's opinions... I think I've decided to get Tokico Blues, Eibach Pro-Kit, and Eibach Front/Rear Sway Bars... should do a lot to the handling... what do ya'll think? Good enough for a daily driver?

i think for the kind of drop that you want 1.5 to 2inches may be to much for the tokicos. i think most people state that they are rated at an 1inch? iirc?

[rice4lyfe]

the suggested max rating for tokicos is 1.75 drop. Pro Kit is fine for these shocks.

[Spikez1222]

The Eibach Pro-Kit is a 1" drop, correct?

I have kyb AGX's and the prokit springs and my ride is great. Kinda rough though on bad roads but very good re-coil rate and stiffness.
