illuminas + H&R, or illuminas + tokico springs

i had my mind set on illuminas + H&R at first...then i looked on ebay and see that a set of illuminas + tokico springs go for $560 shipped, a savings of about $40 over the illuminas + H&R. which would you guys pick?

also, can you guys confirm the illuminas part number for my 96 from performance peddlers? BB3102 + BB3103 + (2) BU2905

thanks

from that link, Performance Peddler has the illuminas for $408 shipped

and http://maxmods.dyndns.org/index.php?MaximaSprings
adventon has the H&R for $208...so i guess $610 total.

so the tokico springs here are not real tokicos? how do i tell?

Money shouldn't be the main concern, how you want your car to ride and handle should be your deciding factor. H&R/Tokico will give you a nice clean look and a great ride for a lowered set up. The total Tokico package sits just slightly lower then H&R's and will be slightly harsher on larger bumps because of that.

So ask yourself how you want your car to look & ride, it should be the most important factor in your spring & strut decision.
