My Lowering Kit is almost complete! Eibach sportlines 2.25" drop on Tokico Blue struts and shocks. Eibach anti roll bar front and rear kit tied in with a Massive Purple upper strut bar! posting pics in just a few short weeks.
If anyone has reviews on the Tokico Blue Shocks or Struts or Eibach products id love to hear about it. I have never used them before. So far ive heard nothing but good things about all these products.
Good or Bad decision??

Never heard of Tokico, but my Eibach Pro Struts didn't even last a year daily driven with the Eibach Pro Shocks. I'm going over to Koni Yellow struts as soon as they come in. I've heard much better things on the Koni side. The Eibach springs have been good though, knock on wood lol

I've been riding on the Eibach pro kit and Tokico blues for a few years now and I have no complaints. This has been my only performance suspension setup so I don't really have anything to compair it to but it's been working well for me. I have heard alot of good things from Koni as well but this setup was more in my price range.

Nope. I was bored at work one day so I called up Automotive Warehouse and worked out an account with them. They give me a pretty good deal so Ill stick with them. When I called your place they told me they didn't carry them. The only brand they carried were Bilstein. I love the brand but they were hugely over-priced in my opinion.
