If you are getting the Tokico Illuminas, I'd say go for it. Be sure you order through www.re-speed.com and support the people that are supporting us (and they're great people to deal with). Also, I haven't found a cheaper price anywhere.

If you are getting Tokico Blues, then you might be a little soft in the rear with the Konis on the front. This will result in understeer (pushing through the corners). Good luck man.

I actually run Koni Reds in the front and Illuminas in the back. I was on a budget when getting the go-fast parts and it worked out well. Car is a hoot to drive and the shocks are great.
