What springs and struts to buy?

I'm thinking of going with tokico (blues) HP's. I was also thinking of going with the Tein S.Tech springs. But now I see that tokico also makes there own spring, and sells the springs/struts as a package.

These are going on a '99 camry 4 cyl. It is a daily driver/family car. I want a sporty feel, but not something that will feel lowered and bouncy. I was thinking that by going with the tokico HP struts this would help, instead of going with KYB's.

What do you guys think. Also does anyone know how low the tokico springs lower?

The Tokico's are going to be more stiff than the KYB's. When you lower a car, it's definately not going to be "bouncy" no matter what you put in there. Just get the Tokico's and some 1" springs like Eibach probably.

I have H&R Springs with Tokico's.... Excellent combination... Ride quality is good and cornering is much better...!!!

Go Tokico..!! As for springs you should be more than fine with Eibach or H&R... My recommendation...

I had/have tokico's and H7R springs. I like them quite a bit. You could buy my almost new ones and save tons of moeny...but I don't think 96 suspension fits a 99 camry.
