Anyone have these? These are what are being installed when I get my springs put on. If any of you are running these how are they and hows the ride? Thanks.

I have the illumina 5 ways with matching tokico springs and its a damn good kit if all you dont intend to do much racing.

I know that some autox guys used to swear by the tokico blues. from what i understand they are a great shock especially for the money.

i don't know, $316 plus our 5% discount plus free shipping sounds pretty good

had i not gone with Bilsteins ($500+) i would've went with Tokico's. i've ordered pretty much all the mods for my car from stangsuspension.com

I dont know if those are the exact same shocks/struts on my Mach but they are Tokico's and the ride is alot better than whatever was on my GT,Feels stiffer,I know alot has to do with it being a Mach with other stuff so thats as much info as I really can give.

Anyone have these paired up with H&R SS springs? I was planing on going with Bilsteins but may go with the Tokico's to save a couple of bucks.

I have the Tokico blue with my H&R springs. It still rides like a lowered car, but it feels firm when going over bumps at high speeds. I am impressed, but this is my first lowered ride so I have nothing to compare it to.

Are you keeping the stock isolators in or are you replacing them with polyurethane ones? I know that some pople remove them completely but I'm not sold on this due to noise issues.

I was going to go with the poly but I think now im just gonna keep the stock isos and keep the tops in and wrap the bottoms with electrical tape. The tape is supposed to keep them from making noise. Ive been talking with a few people here and thats how they did it. Im still waiting for some pm's to be answered to get the rest of the info I need. But it looks like this will be the way im gonna go.

Do you change the setting often..... or just find the setting you like and leave it?
