Anyone riding on the tokico shocks and springs setup?

I noticed this on ebay and that's pretty cheap.

Anyone have experience with this set up?Seems like a cheap alternative but I want to know how it rides...

i have that same kit in my car for about....a year now?

no problem with it. the ride is pretty good, not too stiff, and it lower like 2"....more than what i want....the springs and shocks are all too soft, so it's good for street, but not good for autox.

If i buy springs and shocks for my car again, i porlby will not go with those, just not stiff enough for me. but it's good for normal driving....so i guess it's hard to have both, haha...

Thanks for the reply, I have a few questions though...

Did you have to get a camber kit in the front?
And did they kit improve performace?
And what do you mean by the shocks being too soft?

i bought the tokico spring and shock combo and im happy with it! i did the install myself with no spring compressor. the first wheel i did took me 4 hours!! i had no clue to what i was doin. haha, yea i know, but the rest of it was a breeeeze! anyways, with the illuminas, you can adjust how you want it to ride. the drop on mine was roughly 1.5 all the way around.for camber kits, i did the $15 mod on the bak, and im currently running no camber kit on the front. i had a hard time gettin my car alligned, but finally found a place that was able to do it......costs $65. with my windows rolled up, i can hear a slight squeaking noise from the back while goin down the road. but its not too bad. handles great, looks good! and 17's would fill up the rest of the gap!! anyways, thats all i had to say!!
