Anyone running Tokico HP struts?

I have seen these, and Im contemplating buying a pretty much new set of 07 sport shocks or these. I can t find any feedback on here about them? Anyone running them?

These are the Tokico adjustables?

If so, they are great. Every bit as good as the Konis I had on my last car. They can go from softer than stock to much stiffer.

Don't waste money on buyin OEM shocks--get a set of adjustables so that you can dial them in to your driving style.

I will never give bilstien a cent of my money again, I had "offroad racing" shocks they make for trophy trucks on my tacoma ( about $250 each) and they rusted/leaked and corroded in less than year. Customer service is pretty bad at their main head quarters too.

The Tokico HP are non adjustable, its pretty much a stock replacement

Since the rubber isolation susspension components are worn after 4 years/60k many aftermarket shocks are 10-15% stiffer [at least initially] to help compensate for wear sloppiness. So you can feel like your spending was worthwhile.

Hey Billy Bob my new shocks sure R stiffer than my old worn out worthless shocks is the desired mantra.

The HP's are direct replacements for 05-07 oem Z shocks, which are simular to the 07 sport shocks your looking at. I'd hope the oem shocks your looking at are cheaper vs what you can buy the HP's shipped on ebay.
