Default eg chassis/suspension setup

Hey guys, I'm just getting into the meat of my 6th EG Civic build. This one is a daily driver that I'm putting about 120mi/day on going back and forth to work (mostly highway). This car will never see a track, but I have some fun windy roads on my commute.

Where weight is concerned, it will have a D16 engine (no AC or PS), I have a couple subs in the back, and it has Integra brakes front/rear. So it's slightly heavier than stock on a 94 CX shell.

Wheels are 15x7F with 195/50/15 & 15x8R with 195/50/15 Falken Ziex tires.

I'm currently on KYB struts with Eibach Pro lowering springs. I have an Integra rear sway bar (14mm?) and aftermarket LCAs in back. Front strut-tower brace. Otherwise suspension/chassis is stock.

I also have a set of K Sport Kontrol Pro coilovers that I have not installed because the spring rates seem quite high... feel free to comment.

I enjoy the way the car feels in terms of handling bumps on the road, but I want to reduce body roll and increase traction while accelerating.

Traction bars? Bigger sway bars? Coilovers? Experienced input is appreciated.
