Is there a major difference between the lakewood 50/50 rear shock and the tokico HP "blue" rear shock? I am currently running the tokico's on the rear and stock front struts. I have an opportunity to buy some 90/10 struts for the front and I'd rather have all the same brand. Should I just keep the tokico lakewood combo or would it be a better idea to get the 50/50's?

Well It depends on what you want to do with the car. If you want the car to handle stick with the tokicos. the lakewood is for drag racing. The lakewood 50/50 shock is a bascily a factroy stock shock. From what I was told, were the Tokico is more of a high perfromance shock. If you want the best of both wolrd the go with an adjustable shock. thats all I can tell you.
