anything that is near stock spring rate/height.

GR-2's are stock replacement shocks... so they will only be able to handle so much.

If you search, you will find more specifics, but for the most part - near stock springs.

you wont be able to go much lower than stock at all

you need to look into beefier tires also, those are too small for the car, thatll solve one problem at least, then you can figure out what to do with suspension

what size wheels? 17x7?

get like a 215/45/17, and yeah agx's are the adjustable stiffer units, technically theyre not supposed to hold stiffer springs but thats just what kyb says, so many people have them with stiffer springs its not even funny
