Tanabe NF210 drop 1.5" front 1" in the back.
Someone had mentioned that KYB had some stiffer shocks that would be a good match.

I had KYBs on my H&R springs for the GS but I don't think the front went as low as yours. I loved the combo personally but not everyone had as good of as experience with KYB as I did. It wasn't harsh but eventually I wanted to go lower on coilovers just like everyone said. So I sold the entire car lmao.

So this one?
Amazon.com: KYB  341267 Excel-G OE Replacement Shock: Automotive Amazon.com: KYB 341267 Excel-G OE Replacement Shock: Automotive

I was just wondering if they made one made to work better with those springs or it was just that one shock. Really don't want my car to have that bouncyness after a bump like a riced out Civic.
