Take a look at the Ground Control coilover sleeves. You can get custom spring rates and something like 400F/300R would be a good middle of the ground setup for street and performance driving. They will work well with your Tokicos.

Mahjik thanks I looked at the ground control set up. They say U can change your height 0-2 does that mean up or down confused. Im strapped for cash rite now I was hoping for somthing as simple as a spacer or an extension plus taller springs is there anything that simple possibly factory springs?

aznpoopy

factory springs are cheap and will work

ground control advertises it as a drop, since that is what most people are after. it is a coilover sleeve, however, so you could technically raise the car by preloading the spring. not sure by how much though.

Ralphy

so pre loading it meaning screw it up instead of down? How Is this going to effect the ride?

Is there any picture or diagram out there that shows where 0 is on the sleeve

My M2 (same as Ground Control) coil-over sleeves allow me to raise or lower the car, relative to the stock height. There is a pretty wide range of adjustment available in both directions, so I am sure you could adjust them to the ideal height for your purposes. There is no zero point (as it would be different for each of the many springs you can use, and hence pointless), but it is easy to adjust the height once you have them on the car.

Here are some pics and info from when I converted my shocks to use the sleeves (it will probably be easier for you, since you probably won't need to trim the perch ring like I did).
