A coilover sleeve is basically an adjustable sleeve with a coil on it that slips over your stock struts. A coil over is a full, properly valved system. Coil over sleeves will lead to a blown strut 99% of the time.

what if you have a set of aftermarket shocks/struts, say the Tokico HPs', what type of percent for blown strut would you have?

Id say that depends on how low you drop it.
