Default gf210 + Tokico Blue hp

I have been searching and got a pretty good idea. I wanted to know if using Tanabe GF210 and Tokico Blue shocks and struts would be ok. My Z is a daily driver so I am not looking for straight performance. All I want is for the shocks and struts to perform well on a shorter spring. I assume they are not the same as stock but I have experienced in the past that even aftermarket shocks and struts will not hold up under lowering springs. So will the shocks and struts give a good ride and hold up for a while at least on some gf210?

I'm running this combo now and it's great. No regrets whatsoever.

You will need a rear camber kit for this setup. The front camber will also be a little off but you'll be able to get by.

Tire is wear is minimal with this setup as long as you get an alignment. I have the same setup also.
