Current Cheapest Tokico Supplier?

Hi guys, I am looking to buy some Tokico Illuminas.

I know these threads are kind of worthless but many of the older threads asking the same question are really outdated and I don't want to go spend $500 when someone else has them for $400.

Any tips on the cheapest supplier right now? The best I can find is shox.com at $500 and ebay at $450, and I'd prefer to buy from a site like shox for warranty purposes.

performancepeddler.com had a whole set for 408 shipped, not sure if they still do. use "maxima" as the customer account, and you should get that price.

What's wrong with buying from eBay for your warranty?

I just bought a set from eBay for $450. Best deal I could find. Shipping was more expensive, but the cheaper price outweighed the shipping costs.

performance peddler is 473 shipped, are they legit? Can anyone vouch for them? I can't find any information on resellerratings or anywhere else.

also warranty:
Q: Does TOKICO offer a warranty on their products? A: TOKICO offers a limited lifetime warranty for all of our performance shocks purchased for street use. Products used or designed for competition are not covered under warranty.

- Q: How do I make Warranty Claim?
A: You need to have your original proof of purchase and make a claim with the business that you originally purchased the product from. If they are no longer in business, you will need to work with another authorized distributor near you.

i just installed 2 new rear illuminas i got from performance peddler. it took 1 1/2 weeks because tokico refused to drop ship to customers directly and had to ship to performance peddler and then they shipped it to me, but they arrived and they're on the car. they have a sick price on the rears going right now if you use the maxima code.

I've used shox.com before too. Whatever you do make sure the place you purchase from is an authorized distributor so you can use Tokico's warranty.

Ahh, I see. So that's the catch. I wish I had know that a few weeks ago, or I would have forked out another $50 to be covered by the warranty. Dang.
