93 Camry SE suspension ?'s

so im ordering tokicos for my car finally, i noticed that tokico has a package that they sell with the shocks and tokico springs.
i really like my current springs, they lower it perfectly, improved handling over stock 10x even with blown struts and they are stiffer than i would have imagined(i can hang a tire on small articulation)
i think if tokico put there name on a product it would be good, but i dont wanna get them for the extra $$ if what i have is better. has anyone used these springs before? pn is TOK-HPK357 (6636)
any feedback is appreciated, thanks.

i found that just a new set of oem sturts and just a 3cm lowered set of king springs was perfect..

i have been in many other modded camrys...

yes they might handle 5-10% better...

but they are so hard that you can't drive them on normal roads :P

Thanks for the input, are you talking about the shocks or springs being too stiff? I'm going to get the shocks no matter what, I've ridden with tokico shocks before and its beautiful. But I was wondering if anyone used tokico springs, I like my st sporttech springs now, they are awesome. I'm just mainly wondering if the tokico springs work as well and how much drop they have ect.

Be careful!! I've been down this road before. Last summer before lowering my camry I almost bought a tokico suspension kit that included lowering springs. After calling the company I found out that they give you tokico struts and randomly find springs that will fit your car. (most likely you will not be getting tokico brand springs). In fact, I haven't seen any tokico springs that will fit a gen 3. I ended up buying BigBird's Tokico's with H&R's and never looked back. Hope this helps

BTW do you have a link to the kit?
