Dropzone springs with what shock? help!

I just purchased a dropzone spring for 96 GXE. Will it really lower the car 2 inches? Also, what type of shocks do you recommend? Also I compared the dropzone to the stock springs, dropzone springs seems longer (more coils). Why?

the springs haven't settled, once they do they will compress.

There is another thread here about drop zones. I found that I had to cut one coil on the front to drop the car evenly. I cut a half coil from the top, and a half from the bottom. I now have a level drop, and I love em. I have KYB AGXs, and wouldn't suggest anything else.

Thanks for all the info. I'll probably won't install my new dropzone springs. I prefer good handling than just a lowered car. I think I'll look for an Eibach.
