Default KYB AGX springs.. Lost in a sea of spring rates.

I spend a while trying to figure out what would be a good set of springs or coilovers for my agx's but am lost in a sea of spring rates. I never bothered to match them, and because of that im tired of bouncing on ebays. I know this topic has been beat to death, but all the threads Ive been reading the past hour and a half haven't hit this dead on, just danced around. from what ive read eibach coilovers are good, but their 300 bucks.. at that point would it be better to just buy yellows/gc's and sell the agx's? I want to fix this as cheap as possible, and help is greatly appreciated.. Heres my specifics:

have about a 2.5 inch drop all around, just barely tucks tires in the back and front. Thats as low as I want it, and might be movin to california where roads suck so might even raise it. I have agx's with 205/50/15's up front and 195/55/15's in the back. I read that stiffer spring rate is preferred for heavier swaps (please correct me if im wrong). I have a turbo d15.

I would try Eibach or H&R springs before you give up on them.

eibach pro kits if you want a good ride. eibach sportlines if you want to run lowered.

you wont get both in one spring.

I hear you should add a half inch to what lowering springs promote. True?
