Well, I was putting on my summer tires and rims when I noticed my stock front passenger strut was leaking. So I must replace my shocks and struts.

I am not looking to lower my car. I was wondering if I put the Tokico Blue non-adjustables with stock springs, would it lower my car at all? Or just a bit... what about GR-2's with stock springs?
 
Height is dealt by springs. If you have stock springs you will be at stock height. Blues or GR2s will work fine. GR2s are stock replacement. Blues are not much of an upgrade.

Btw, you have shocks.
 
Heh... thanks Skillz. So... Tokico illuminas/hp with stock springs would ride around the stock height? And are there any issues with mounting the shocks with the stock springs... i.e. the perch's don't fit up or something?

As long as you get the shocks for your model vehicle, everything will match up fine.

You have a nice car. Why not consider a small drop with a quality spring w/ good price? Pro kits will serve you well with illuminas.
