Tokico HP Blue w/ Neuspeed Race springs or Skunk2 coilovers

I have a 2002 civic ex, I really dont want too spend too much on coilovers so I decided to go with Tokico HP Blues and either Neuspeed Race Springs or Skunk2 coilovers.
How is either of this setup?

the tokico's will blow, tokico's can only handle at max a 2 inch drop, great for Neuspeed Sports, with the Skunk 2's (2-3 in drop)or Neuspeed Race (2.5 in drop ), Koni Yellow's are you best bet

Skunk2 coilovers DO NOT FIT OEM struts!! I found this out while trying to install the coilovers. Also, beware of the fact that you will most likley need a camber kit as well once you lower your car (unless you can care less about your tires). I dont know how the tokicos are built but i will say that im not sure if the skunks will fit.

You'll be fine with a 1.5" drop on blues. My first suspension setup was a 1.3/1.4 F/R drop (Tein S-Tech) on blues.

How low do you wanna go ? Eibach pro kits can handle up to 1'' drop, or else you can try Eibach sportlines, I would say max 1.5'' on tokico blues.

Shocks can blow, depending on the usuage. If you want to slamm down, It would be better to go for konis .
