Everybody's favorite topic! I searched and read through about 10 pages worth of shock information. Good stuff, but not quite what I'm looking for.

I'm planning on keeping everything stock, with the exception of 4 non-worn out shocks. My big question is what will work well with the TRD springs (I think I've read that there progressive, and stiffer than non-TRD). I just want to change shocks (for money's sake) and my driving is a fair amount of cityish with 80 or so highway commuting miles a day. I like responsive handling, but want to be comfortable for my commute (I don't expect anything like a cadillac)

What would be really cool is if I could get a ranking of shock stiffness for the shocks that would work with the TRD springs.

A few I'm considering and would like to see ranked (would consider others of reasonable price):
OEM TRD/Bilsteins ($??)
Bilstein HDs ($290 on ebay)
KYB Monomax ($240? on ebay)
KYB Gas-A-Just (~$220 some online store)
Tokico Trek masters ($210 on ebay)

Thanks
Mike
