Who has Tokico springs? Opinions?

I've been trying to get some opinions on the Tokico springs... maxmods says that they are "new and not much is known about them yet".

Any user opinions would be greatly appreciated.....

I installed MMMaxx's set up and he loves them. They are pretty soft, the drop is similar to Eibachs or Intrax. The front is higher then the rear, finger gap wise, on an auto with 2 12's in the trunk. They are really nice overall. Not a racing set up, its more for crusin. Nice and comfy because of the illuminas.

I'm also interested. If anybody could give impressions on a five speed (without anything in the trunk) that would be great...specifically do they ride nose high like H&R's?

A 5 speed is maybe 1/4" higher in the front than an auto. IMO his car would still be lower in the rear (finger gap wise) without the stereo. I think the subs drop the rear about 1/4" but the difference front to rear with the tokicos is more like 1/2". Its just how maxima fenders are. BUT not as bad as 8th gen Galants.....yuck!

My Eibachs are equal all the way around finger gap wise. Same with my Intrax in the front/Eibach in the rear set up i have at the moment.

I have this set up with my 5 spd and stock trunk stuff only. I got a 1.625" drop in front and 1.75" drop in rear. The measured ride height is now dead even on all four corners. From some angles, depending on the slope of the ground etc..., it looks just a touch saggy in the a$$.
I think it looks great overall. Perfect amount of drop imo. Handles great and still rides pretty darn OK.
