Get them matched with Koni Yellows, they go together like peas and carrots.

its the spring rate of the spring that you should be concerned with. just dont try going with a swift spring thats super stiff or you blow your shocks immediately. but the springs that come with the kit are ok for the OEM shocks.

you are running way under dampered, not trying to be an arse but most would say it's not a good match.

The spring rates on the Ground-Control kit are customizable which means that you can lower your vehicle without sacrificing its drivability. I would prefer to wear out my track worthy suspension (KW Variant 3s) on the track, not while I am putt putting around on the street.
