Tokico Illuminas

Alright so I've looked around and it seems like tokico is a great brand, so I started to look online and found what I think is a great deal, but I dont know if this is what I need. I'm going to be doing new struts and shocks so will this do?

http://www.stillen.com/product.asp?i...U01&c=SU&m=all

you can scroll down to chevy or just select it on top. Am I right when I think i only need the first two products ($161.44 and $107.88) under the chevy section? and whats the 3rd option ($688.60)

thanks

Re: Tokico Illuminas

I bought mine for 50 each for the back and can't remember for sure but iut was about 115 the struts. All said and done I like the ride quality but they are not adjustable. Car handles great but once again wish I had a little more control. They are a good shock granted I don't road race but for everday driving they are perfoming well for me.

Re: Tokico Illuminas

No I bnought the standard tokico but once again the prcie was right and they a very good shocks for the money but I wish I had bought the illuminas. Sorry about the confusion on the earlier post I was thinking you were just looking at the tokico brand per say.
