Hello
You cant! We would be able to better assist you if we knew what type of driving the vehicle was being set up for! Is it a Daily Driver or a Street and Strip Car? When you can get back to me with that info and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks
Brad

No the QA1 front spring is 2 1/2" diameter at the base much smaller than the factory spring the Tokico shock is designed for.
The QA1 will only work on their shock or a similar type shock like a Strange,Varishock,Afco etc. All of which we are distributors of

Kind of got two different answers up there.
The car is a DD/Street car.
I rarely ever take it to the track or do any road racing(auto-x).
After reading up on/reviewing the Tokicos and actually using the QA1 Shocks, I'd rather go for some Bilsteins but they probably won't work for the Springs either right?

Correct they are designed for the factory spring diameter cup also.
You would do better to just sell the QA1's and put the money towards a new set of lowering springs. We offer a set of springs that lower the car 1.25" and still retain daily driver ride qualities.
The spring can be found here-
