however been told by a mechanic saying springs have little to no performance increase and itll eventually blow the struts.

I have the TRD springs, approximately 1 inch lowering. I really cannot tell the difference in ride and as others have mentioned, this is a dealer option that has no impact to warranty so I truly doubt there is any significant issue with the struts if installed properly. I installed these springs solely for cosmetic reasons and am quite pleased overall - I would do it again and have absolutely no regrets.
I never track this car - it is my daily driver with occasional spirited runs. If you do not track your car I doubt you will notice a difference on the street other than an improvement in the wheel well gap.
Good luck!
