Then
OEM Replacement < Tokico blues < GR2 < AGX < Illuminas < Koni's
The blues and Gr2 are sometimes placed prior to OEM

Yellows or Illumina's hands down for the H&R race drop. If you flew over a curb, however, and have massive vibrations past 40mph perhaps there's something far worse than just blown shocks going on (bent subframe, bent control arms, bent anything).

Good luck!

i changed all the bent'd parts (cost me 600 total)
and it's not massive vibrations, just it's vibrates like a ps2 control

Any pics of the H&R drop on your ride? Might be interested as I'm out of the coilover/perch springs game for a while . PM me if you're serious .
