Koni's are a good start..
While it'll be virtually impossible to achieve a non-sport ride with lowering springs, Koni's are great shocks to start off with if you're looking for comfort. They've got a softer compression rate than Bilsteins, and have enough rebound damping to handle most of the aftermarket lowering springs with ease.
They're a great shock for the street, and we highly prefer them over the Bilsteins.

Thanx for the reply guys!......
I know I cant get a non-sport ride with lowering springs, I still want it stiff but no back breaking. I understand that the Koni's have 3 setting, I was thinking of setting them to 1 and see how I like and can always switch to 2. I know 3 is over board.

Welcome..
Koni's use a valve without indents. There's no clicking, or preset stops on the adjustment.
It's just a sweeping dial that turns about 2.5 times from CCW to CW. The valving is usually expressed in terms of a %, 0% is full soft, 100% is full stiff.
Sometimes it's expressed in "turns" 1 turn from soft, or 1.5 turn from full soft.
Hope that helps.

Absolutely..
And they'll improve your ride and performance.
They use more sophisticated valving, materials and fluid, which will make the the ride MUCH better over the crappy stock shocks.
Plus they're warranted for life, even against wear and tear, so you'll never need to buy another shock.
