I am looking at replacing shocks and struts. Does anyone have any experience with Tokico HP? I looking for a nice ride. I plan on upgrading to IPD sways to help the cornering, but don't want the ride too stiff.

Thanks,
Dave

    Dave,

    I had Tokico HPs on our 245 for a number of years--purchased from ipd along with their sport springs in 87 or 88. Replaced them after 10 years with boge turbo gas. The tokicos seemed just a little bit stiffer than the boges--thought that they were nice shocks . . . if ipd had still carried them, I'd have bought them again.

    Not sure if they would be different for the 7-series cars or not.

    Regards,

    Steve A-
