SMOOTH close to stock ride:
H&R/Tokico and or KYB Agx (approx 1.4" all around)

STIFFER than H&R ride:
Eibach/KYB Agx (approx. 1.5" all around)

HARSHER than Eibach ride:
Sprint/KYB Agx (approx. 2" up front and 1.4" rear)

both H&R and Eibach will give you plenty of room for 19's and enough clearance for your body kit. Sprints might be a lil tight up front clearance wise for the 19's, but im sure it would work. And of course with new spring/strut installation youll need an alignment.

If your wondering im riding on H&R(cut one coil) and Tokico struts for a 1.6" drop all around. I still maintaned an extremly smooth yet sporty ride. Plenty of room for my 18's and for my Stillen kit.

Go with H&Rs if you don't want a harsh ride, or Eibachs if you don't mind the sacrafice for better handling.
