tokico's are one of the best, if not the best that they make for the gen 3 & 4 camry in terms of struts

I had tokicos on my old solara, they are great if you are into a close to stock ride that handles well around corners.

well it looks like other than coilovers, the best thing for your ride and height is doing a drop spring and shock upgrade...total was about 500 bucks versus the coilovers at twice as much...and the handling has already improved much over oem with just the springs...surprisingly

whiterabbit considering that you have the 7/5 rate like mine and also had the tokicos before how much comfort did you lost going to coilovers? Did you lost more comfort than you gained performance is the question i'm asking cause i never had the tokicos just had blown stock struts from the start till the 7/5 rate coilovers!!!

7/5's are pretty harsh for a street car arent they? thats another reason why im doing shock/spring upgrade...ill rarely take this car to a track...and when i do it will be for fun anyway, and these two upgrades alone should give me much better handling over oem
