Tokico or Koni......get adjustables. I have Koni shocks on Ground Control coilovers, and the car rides almost stock.....I have the fronts set at about 1/2 turn, and the rears set 3/4, so they're supposed to be very stiff, but it still feels good.

I'd say Koni yellows for your stiff coilovers.

Your stock struts are good as dead with a drop like that. You'll need to upgrade soon IMHO.
