Shocks: Tokico HP (blue) vs OEM Type-S ???
I have an 07 Type-S and my warranty has just expired.
I am looking to lower my car with the H&R sport springs.
I have a set of brand new tokico hp (blue) shocks that was given to me from a friend who no longer has a need for them.
My question is should I put the H&R springs on my current oem type-s shocks or put them on the tokico's?
I know the tokico's are stiffer than the oem base shocks.. but are they stiffer than the oem type-s shocks?
**I understand, that it will probably be recommended/suggested/threatened that i should go with coilovers/supercupkit etc.... but this is the setup that i would like to go with for now.

I've got H&R Sport with the TL-S struts and am very pleased. There is some risk that dropping your ride on stock shocks will accelerate the wearing out of the shocks. The more the drop, the greater the risk.
I have ~33k on the car. 22k with the H&R springs. So far, so good.
I don't know for sure, but I would expect the Type-S shocks to be a little more aggressive than the Blues. Just a guess on my part.
