Question Tokico HP or HTS?

Hey Guys,

I'm changing out the shocks/struts on my 2010 liftback. I definitely want a pretty firm ride but I don't know if the HTS is too firm. Do any of you guys have them? The help would be much appreciated.

The HTS are not too firm -- IF you set them that way. They are adjustable from soft to stiff.

The Tokico blues will give you a nice firm ride for $250 less - but you can't adjust them.

Thanks for the input Garm! My dad called me back and got me a smokin deal so i opted for the HTS! Im so happy! My Yaris will be stiffer than a dick on a wedding day! lol.

PS: Installed my intake, pulley, springs and sway last week. The car feels great! It'll be even better with the Reds! I'll be seein you in a couple weekd for that VIS hood...

Is that adjustability worth the extra money? How much can it truly change the handling?

shocks are the biggest influence after tires
