Whatever you want. You just have to replace the whole set up, you can't swap nivomats with basic aftermarket springs and vice versa.

FCP has but they dont specify if its for AWD or FWD i assume FWD like all the other ones.

Are those just the springs? I'm not exactly sure how it's set up. I'm pretty sure the Rs came with nivomats, so if you wanted to lower it, you would have to replace the nivomats with normal shocks, which would then allow you to do whatever. But I'm not exactly sure how the rears of those are set up. Wait for Tech or someone who knows a little more about that.

maybe putting regular FWD wagon springs in the back will work.
