Cool need shocks for my GC coilovers

I have an 02 civic coupe and recently picked up some ground control coilovers part #4531.01.
I need some front and rear shocks that will fit my coilovers. Anybody know where I can get a good deal?

That's what I thought but everyone keeps telling me that I'll blow them out in like two days if I do.

I don't think I'm going lower than two inches but I probably should replace the shocks since I'm adding the coilovers and f/r camber kit. Might as well do it all at once.

Is it true that my coilovers won't work on koni shocks? I have model #4531.01. A guy on ebay told me that mine won't work on koni and ground control makes a special model for koni shocks.
