    KYB or Tokico?

    Hey, thing is Im gonna drop my car in a few months and I wanna buy off David's site since I know Ill be on the safe side with this. All he has for my 98 is KYB or Tokico struts. Whats the diff in them besides price? Feeling everything on the road isnt a big deal to me, I never knew what it felt like and I did yesterday and it doesnt bother me at all. So whats better here?

    I have Tokicos, and they are quite stiff..I heard that the KYBs can fade after a year of hard use, so I went with the Tokicos.

    Koni struts are good, in fact DAMNED good, but i couldn't find any for the 01/02 corolla...and your car uses the same struts.

    kyb only if price isn't a factor. tokicos are a lil pricey, and konis are even more expensive.
