Default Shocks and struts disscussion!!

My stock bilsteins are done after 114k miles. The 2" drop didn't help them either.
I'm looking for some good name brand shocks for the IRS to mate with H&R supersport springs. I don't mind about ride quality, I just want some stiff shocks.

Any recommendations? and links on where they can be purchased.

I want to purchase rear first and then the front. Not enough funds at this time. The car is only used for daily driving, no track or strip visits anytime soon.

I wouldn't mind going with bilstein again, but this time I'm looking for stiffness. The car sits low, and I mean x pipe damage low.
