I'd go with the apex springs, and some gr-2's.

That was me. Intrax springs with GR-2s.
The problem with that cut though was on really heavy bumps, like parking lot speed bumps, it would hit the rear bump stops with two passengers (1 in front & 1 in back), unless I crept over them. Stiffer shocks would have prevented that. Maybe some Koni Yellows.
With me alone, or just a front passenger, it was ok.
Do some research, not all lowering springs give the same drop. I have on Eibach Pros on my GT-S and they dropper the back more than the front, leveling out the car.
This is what my car looks like with the Eibach springs, GR-2s on the back and AGXs on the front. I wish I could get AGXs for the back too.
I have taken two full sized passengers (200 lb & 150 lb) with no ill effects.
