kyb gr2 are oem replacement shocks. you should look into the KONI STR.T Non-Adjustable Shocks. i dont have any experience with these but koni says the STR.T shocks "Compliments lower springs". you can find them for $66 each shipped here:

for a daily driver i would go with lowering springs as suppose to coilovers.
