Ordered tokico shocks, keep H&R springs?

This morning I just bought Tokico HP shocks for my 02 civic. The H&R springs I currently have on my car are perfectly fine after a good year or so worth of driving, but how does the drop outcome with the combination? The springs state a 1.4" drop however, everyone knows H&R springs sag. With these specs, should I change the springs or can the tokico shocks handle the extra sag pressure from the springs?

Well right now performancecenter.com has:

Rear : $54.00

Not too bad.

If the "clearance comando" is gone from the rear price, then I might have bought the last two rears listed @ $54.
