I have had the Hipermax Damper II's on both of my GS and live by them. They offer a great 30 adjustment setting range from near stock "soft" to agressive "hard". I kept them at a setting of 14-15 which was a great compromise in performance and comfort with 19" wheels. HKS also offers a lower cost version, the Hipermax LS, which is more of a luxo oriented than sport. It is height adjustable, but not stiffness. They are rated and positioned as a luxury sport, hense the "LS" coilover. If you have any questions let me know or check them out here:
