TRD shocks w/aftermarket coil overs

Hi Guys,
Has anyone put aftermarket coilovers on the trd/bilstein shocks?

Any installation issues? How has the performance been?

I'm thinking about doing this using Donahoe or OME coil overs. Should just use the whole set up?

Yhoughts please

I believe you will need to replace the shocks to accommodate the extra travel, and with the OME rear, the shocks are valved to the spring rate.
