For what you want, I'd say stock. I think the lowering springs with the least drop are still about 1" drop.

If you are looking for a stock replacement then the KYB GR2's are fine with stock springs. Vogtlands lowering springs give a drop of about 1". Its comparable to the GMPP lowering kit. With lowering springs I would go with KYB AGX's.
