Yeah I plan to put some coil overs on and lower it about 2.5" and run on some 17X7 rims.

your setup will blow the shocks eventually with either, the tokikos will be the first to blow in my experience (ive used both) and the gr2's are a litlte cheaper to replace. i would suggest though that if you can wing it, dish out the extra cash to get agx's and they will last

out of those 2 choices, get the GR2's. I've had both, and the GR2's are better. I would suggest saving more.....

Not to parrot everyone else, but on stock ride height either will do. For lowering go with gr2s, cheaper and they last a bit longer.

I have tokico illuminas. They are great.
I also run tokico lowering springs. They are great.
I set both front struts and rear struts to 4. It feels great.
