s-techs with illuminas or blues sufficient?

I'm pretty sure I'm going with the Tein S-tech springs for my drop. The Tokico Blues are significantly cheaper than the Illuminas and I have no real plans to do any self-adjusting of the shocks... so, are there any disadvantages to going with the Blues? Are the Illuminas that much better (I mean, I think the spring ratings are the same)?

I don't want to spend the extra $200 if it's not going to do anything, other than give me the ability to self-adjust. But, if the quality of the Illuminas is that much better and they'll be more durable, etc, then I'll go with them.

Tell me what y'all think.

Tokico with drop The blues will fail. They are not meant to be dropped. Illuminas you can drop.
