good set of struts

[RedDaemon]

KYB seems to be a decent brand, however when i searched i found that people really dont like them and that there is better...whats a good strut to use for non-race track purposes? im going to be lowering my car soon with steeda sports...and i want to do the whole shabang cuz i have over 75k on my clock

I just installed Steeda Sports along with Tokico HP struts/shocks and I am very pleased with the results . The ride is not harsh at all and even feels much better over rough and broken pavement. It actually feels like my suspension is absorbing the impact now instead of just transmitting the bumps through the car.

nice...thats what ijm looking for..absorbtion...how much did the struts and shocks cost all together? minus the springs

 

[pdl2flr]

I found them for $274 shipped on ebay. I did not purchase them on ebay, but the place I purchased them from price match along with the springs. Thats about $100 less than there normal retail price.

I got the complete set of shocks and struts from AutoZone for less than $100. Gabriels and they were in stock as well.

wheres a website that sells tokico?

 

[hognutz]

if lowing I would not buy cheap stuts if you want them to last.

I would look at tokico kits with springs on ebay if you are on a budget. they are good deal and matched kit. probably carry waranty as well.

I am not sure if run tokico hp's with sport springs if they would carry any waranty. I woudl check into that before I purchased.

thanks, just what i was looking for

 

[pdl2flr]

Yea, JDMWerks on ebay is where you can get the HP's for $274 shipped. The adjustables would be nice, if you really think you will have the need for them. If your just looking for struts/shocks for the street, than the HP's should be fine. As far as warranty, I did not read anywhere that stated you had to use only Tokico springs with them. I am confident they will warranty them with the Steeda's, especially since they offer a mild drop.
