Default Stock Springs, KYB AGX shocks

I have ground FX's now and don't really want to lower the car anymore. I do run my car on Watkins Glen and other Auto-X tracks. The stock springs seemed fine, sure they could have been a little more stiff.

BMR springs are on backorder everywhere and unable to get them. What are your thoughts of stock springs with aftermarket shocks. I did a search and it seems like it's not a bad combo (stock shocks and aftermarket springs are a no-no)

Here's a pic of my goign about 95mph into a hard corner using stock springs/shocks with 315's in the rear. As you can see, they don't get %100 compressed as is.



I Think the only other choice besides BMR would be the 1LE springs, but I'm having issues finding those as well.

Not sure about the AGX, but I have the KYB GasAJust shocks. They offer a pretty smooth ride, but they are probably too soft for what you're after. For driving to and from work, they do nicely. When I start getting a little more aggressive with them, they show their weaknesses.
