Default civic drop help please...

i have a 98 civic ex...and i've been riding on stock shocks with aerospeed coilovers with 17 inch verdicts (205/r17/40) for a couple years now...

haven't PRECISELY measured...but it's certainly more than a 2inch drop all around...don't get me wrong...the car sits amazingly...

but i'm really starting to get sick of the hella bouncy ride...took the car to a shop...and the stock shocks are still in pretty decent shape (i can still use them)...

so...my question is...what do you guys suggest for lowering springs (i heard that u can suffice on stock shocks/dampers with them...and note: my car is NOT destined for AutoX or nuttin' of the sort)?? i certainly am in the hunt for a decent price...but i also want a set that will give me the greatest possible drop WITHOUT scraping at all with my above mentioned wheel setup...and i noticed that some brands have like 2.25 front and 2 rear (which i'm assuming will work out with my wheel setup)...but are there any kits that offer like a 2.25 for BOTH front and rear at a decent price?

THANX!!
