Default Progress springs with what shocks?

Bought a car few months ago with Dropzone coilovers, which ride like ****. I want to replace them ASAP.

So I recently picked up some used Progress springs and I'm looking for some shocks to pair them up with. I daily drive my car and it will most likely never see the track / Auto X, although I might drive like I stole it every now and then

So yeah. I was thinking of going with the Skunk2 sport shocks, but a lot of people said they were really, super stiff - something I'm not looking for. Although, they could be pansies and their idea of "stiff" is completely different than mine.

Thanks!

How stiff or how good someting rides is all opinons.

How much money do you have to spend?
illuminas, koni sports or the str-t's Are all adjustable so you would be able to stiffen it up or make it softer.
