Comfortable combo?
Simple question I want to know from your experience what shock/spring combo gives the most comfortable ride quality with at least a 1.5 inch drop. Im thinking about getting the usual tokico blues and sportlines. Sadly I dont have the cash for full coilovers and Im not gonna do any racing/autox.
Been searching and Im either typing in the wrong words or maybe there isnt a thread like this, or maybe its a combo of the two and Im freakin stupid but I cant find anything relating to this.

Yup. Progressive springs are your best bet for ride quality, and Tokicos are known to be on the softer side of performance dampers.
i just put on tokico blues with my prokits. perfect drop if you're not plannin on going too low. and the ride is pretty good. cant compare to stock because i forgot how that felt, but does ride pretty smooth.

that combo sounds good, sportline and tokico. i'd say it'll ride same as stock, but more comfortable and less bouncy. sportlines give about a tight 2 finger gaps in front and a loose one finger gap in back. i like them when i had it on my car.

dont think so, all of the springs are set up just about that same way..... i'm guessing for a better corner balance???? but it looks good and isnt really noticable. i'd stick with eibachs though. from what i was told eibachs make the most consitant springs.
