Tokico Blues or KYB GR2 will work just fine.

You want to keep your ride the same....go with OE.

The Gr-2 are 15% stiffer then stock

Blue close to stock--over priced

Monroe --- a cheep product --don't

from everything I have heard, the GR2's don't change the ride that much, if you keep the stock springs.

OEM are just so expensive for what they are. Aftermarket are just better struts.

I'm not getting your question. If you want a ride like OEM and don't want a drop why don't you just get OEM's. Sensatrac(OEM) rear can be had for $90 a piece and I imagine the fronts are slightly more.
