Default XR8 suspension questions

Regarding King springs, I know people usually get a lower spring in the rear to flatten out the stance but do people go
Front Lows/Rears Superlows? or
Front Superlows/Rears Ultralows?

And has anyone tried the Monroe GT sports shortened shocks? Any idea on price?

not sure about the XRs but my 'lane is on SLs all round and her booty still rides higher than the front.... was going to put ultras in the back but she'll sit way too low... but SLs all round make all AUs look the way they should

I can get the parts at trade price so Im not worried about ebay. That price is probably close to what it is though.
