Default koni yellows or tokico illumina's?

i have ground control coilover with stock shocks and my stock shocks are dead. i'm in need of shocks and have koni yellow and tokico illumina's in mind. my car is drop maybe 2.0 inches or 2.2 inches. i was just wondering which shocks would be better for daily driving or suited more for my ground control coilover on my eg.

your ground controls would work with illuminas.

youd need new sleeves to work with koni's.

That's what I'm doing for my set. Just make sure that the adapter wraps over the circlip on the Koni.
