Cool Shocks and springs?!?!

Been hanging here for a while and I have a question. I was thinking bout lowering my impala SS with some Eibach springs but was wondering if any one had a suggestion for shocks to go with it? The car has 70k on the clock and I am looking to see if I can improve the traction out of the hole.

Originally, there were no replacement STRUTS for the Imp. Everything out there, even if it said it fit, caused rubbing on the inner part of the tire. I know first hand. I lowered mine with KYB GR2 struts and SSC lowering springs. Love the look, ride is tight, but the rubbing killed the tires.

However, KYB has recently come out with new struts for the 2006+ imp. Check out their site for specifics.
