Default help chosing shocks

Question I saw a thread on this but didn't want to highjack as I have my own questions. First my car bottoms out in the rear, what shock brand should I go with my car won't see any track time just highway and occasional street spirited runs. I have eibach springs with a 1.5 rear drop. And just to add one more thing the type of bottom out I'm talking about is the kind that make you and the passenger put a bitter face like if you where in pain which in fact you are...I'm sure it's not good for the car so any advice would help. thanks guys

The two shocks I've seen recommended for lowered cars are KYB AGX and Koni. My car had eibach sportline springs and KYB AGX's on it when I bought it and it was constantly bottoming out until I switched to Strano springs.

Take it easy
