Default Skunk2 and KYB AGX shocks

Are Skunk2 coilovers good for a daily driver with KYB AGX shocks? How's the ride like? Idk if this matters but I have stock motor right now and planing on getting a swap soon, would it matter? Also not sure yet on which Skunk2 coilovers they are...

usually on a Honda you would like to have the rear a little higher than your front to help traction.

The car looks really good !

Thanks...I don't have much of a traction problem...my sohc can't seem to muster-up enough power. But I agree...the back needs to come up just a bit.
