Yes, KYB GR2 is the same.

I have a question the other way. I bought KYB GR2 shock/struts. Now I am searching for the right springs. Any suggestions?

It's a matter of personal choice. How much drop you want, how stiff a ride you are willing to put up with,etc, etc. Lots of choices, tons of varying opinions. Use SEARCH up top a lot before deciding. Helps if you know other Max's with varying combinations. There is no perfect answer, all are some sort of compromise.
