MAN, there great. I had the tokiko/eibocks and they suck(no offence). I think they were just a stock replacment. I have it set at a stiff but good ride. Handles much better the other setup. No more tail wage and no more nose dives when I hit the brakes. And it looks a lot better. From ground to top of wheel well(outside fender) was 27.25inches stock, 26 inches with the tokiko/eibock and now with the Cattman is 25inches so 2.25inches dropped is good for my 225/45/17 tires. LOTS AND LOTS of thanks and appreciation to Biomax for all his help with the fast shiping and install help..

Congrats! Coilovers are on my wishlist...just below Don's VB upgrade.

Before you say that your old setup sucked, consider the cost/benefit of each approach. The Tok/Eib combo may not afford the same performance as the coilovers, but they only cost approximately 1/3 as much.

I also have to disagree with your suggestion that the Tok/Eib combo is a simple stock replacement. The difference between the two setups is significant.

Yes I can hear it when I turn real sharp. Like into or out of a parking spot.
