Fox vanilla forks on a rockhopper

It is very likely that I am going to get some Fox vanilla 130R forks for my '04 specialized rockhopper. I have heard it is likely that with the 130mm travel, it will wreck the handling.

Will setting lots of sag (say 30mm) and using 130mm travel, or just change the spring to 100mm be fine for my bike - I assume so?

What color springs does the fork come with?

Any other thoughts on the fork/setup? Should I be looking at other (cheaper) forks? - these are at the top limit of my budget.
