The reality is, OEM shocks are actually pretty good from the factory and it's going to be hard to beat for how well they perform and how smooth they operate from the factory. I recommend picking up a set of Raceseng camber plates for the OEM coilover and SPL rear LCA to dial in the desired alignment setup in the future if you intend to stay stock coilovers. This allows you to dial in the car's handling characteristics a little better while having sufficient suspension travel. This also allows you to utilize your tires a little more efficiently.  If you don't like the wheel gap, Swift Spec-R springs (released recently) are some of the lightest and best lowering springs on the market.

How are the Spec-R springs in terms of streetability compared to the Sport springs? Just as good?
