Replacing the trashed shocks and springs...

Replacing the trashed shocks and springs...
I have a 2001 Miata... I want good grip, and a quality ride. I will get an alignment afterwards as well.
Are these the shocks I need?
Mazda Miata Bilstein B6 Heavy Duty Front Monotube Gas Pressure Shocks and Struts 1999-2005
and
Mazda Miata Bilstein B6 Heavy Duty Rear Monotube Gas Pressure Shocks and Struts 1999-2005
I couldn't find anyone selling oem springs.. every spring i find, is "sport" or "race" or "lowering"
I found some oem suppliers, but they were selling a "mazdaspeed spring kit" which lowered 34 mm.. I'm not interested in a drop, just good performance.

I have a "budget" setup on my 1995 that nevertheless rides and handles very well:
- FM swaybars
- KYB GR2 dampers
- Honda civic front bumpstops, untrimmed, at all corners
- Aftermarket shock boots from jegs/summit/ect
I also dialed in as much front negative camber as I can get. The car is autocross competent and the girlfriend doesn't complain about the ride. The longer bumpstops act as progressive spring rate adders.
