I have what I show in my sig... I have stock shocks with the Eibach Pro-Kit.. I am very tempted to buy the Tokico Illuminas, or even just the blues.. Talk me into spending the $500.. I know the stock shocks aren't good at all, but are the Tokicos, or any other performance shock and strut setup worth the money???

With the miles you likely have on your 96 it would'nt be a bad idea. It would smooth out your ride especially on a lowered car. I would look around for the best deal. The prices vary widely on the same shocks on different sites.
