Need help to decide which shocks are better.

I'm thinking about to change my shock. I have 2 brands in my mind. Tokico (adjustable) and KYB (adjustable); however, i can't decided which one is the best. Is anybody know which one is The best?. Pro and Con Between them. And also anybody know where is the cheapest place/website to get it.

Thanks guys

KYB adjustable isnt made for 5th generation maximas leading you to only buy illuminas, plus illuminas have gotton better reviews...kybs reported being much stiffer in cold weather

Do you know the place to get it?. Ebay is the cheapest place to buy tokico (so far), but i'm worried. Usually on ebay, a lot of people sell fake things.

through google lookup rhythm motorsports.

They are based out of Phoenix Arizona and are great folks to do business with.

I bought my Illumina's from them last november and also worked with them last december when i blew both my rear shocks due to bad springs.

Good luck.
