Default Tokico HPs

Yes, I searched but couldn't find a good answer that I was looking for, just a lot of stuff on the D-Specs. I'm going to doing a suspension set-up here shortly. I've considered the D-Specs, but I'll never adjust them. The car is a daily driver and I want something good for daily driving and spirted driving. Do you any of you have them? What do you think about them? If not the HP or D-Specs, what else is there in the price range of HPs?

I think if youre going to bother changing shocks/struts just go with koni adjustable or the dspecs... even if you only adjust them once, atleast they will be exactly what you want them to be. i personally wouldnt bother with the hp's.

no but ive trolled many forums and talked to many people about shocks/struts for the s197's.. ive been researching for over a year now and after considering the hp's they are off my list. I would post this in thes197 v8handling section there are some guys pretty serious about suspension who never really show up in this area.

They are serious about suspension so that's exactly why I didn't post in that section, they'll say go adjustables or complete coilovers. LOL.

I went with the Hp's. I was thinking the same as you. I'll never change them once I set them the first time. So, why not save $200+ and get the non adjustables to begin with. I'm very happy with my set up.

God this makes it so much harder. I was dead set on getting the Tokico HPs but now I'm leaning towards the D-Specs.

Don't mean to thread hijack but. If I go with the DSpecs and say Eibach pro kit or sportline? would that workout well?
