To me there are three main brands of struts to get. KYB, tokico, koni. And the order by price/quality is as follows

Non adjustable (best priced)
- KYB GR2
- Tokico Blue (the ones you posted)
- Koni Red

Adjustable (best performance)
- KYB AGX
- Tokico Illumina
- Koni Yellow

So as you see your near the mid of the best price area. Which any of these are fine to get. So i would say they are good. If your looking for best priced ones then the KYB GR2's are good. Im sure those are on ebay as well for alittle cheaper than the tociko, but its all on what you want to spend

Ive seen lowered cars on GR2's and the ride quality wasnt all that bad. Obviously its not optimal. However im not sure how well the longevity is on GR2's with springs
