    Tokico, from what I've read kyb is just strickly a stock replacement but tokico is better. I think because of koni being gone the prime setup for not a rediculous price would be tokico rears and revalved bisteins in the front. Two tokicos are about 135 including shipping and the bilsteins are probably around 320 after being revalved.

    If you can love the tokico's you'd be at a lose for words if you switched to Koni's.
