[pk_kk]

I was wondering i'm thinking of getting tokico struts and tien springs for my 98 camry and my friend was telling me

#1 These would only last me 2 years
#2 Tokico sucks

I'm worried because I want somthing to lower my car but to last around min 4-5 years. something under 1G

I do believe the Tokicos have a lifetime warranty? you might want to check..
I've had mine for roughly two years and they still do the job although I'm replacing
them with the JIC coil overs..
It all depends on how you drive and what you want out of them.

Odd, i've heard nothing but good things about tokico, and mine have performed exceptionally well.

[Eye8Pussies]

most definately, the quality of tokico's cannot be questioned

same goes for their warrantee. if it starts leaking, then bring it back to the shop where you got it, and they should order a new one for you, and then you just have to bring your old one back to them

Would i need a Camber kit for the Front 1.46 rear 0.63

It's Tein NOT Tien.

AND, for the noobs out there, it's not pronounced TEEN or TEEEYAYN, it's pronounced TAIN.

I would suggest you get an allignment at a good shop after the springs settle. Should be fine after that.

[TRDCamryCL]

I'm rocking them... no problems at all...

[nodrogkam]

with H. tech tein springs i think i'll definately need to be getting a good allignment. I do notice the top of my wheels angling inward. A camber kit could help, but for the most part i think you should be okay.

You should be fine with the Tein/Tokico setup. Tokicos are great shocks, just as long as you don't slam on them (go more than 1.5in which you aren't). And Tein is a reputable company so their stuff is top notch.
