Best Coilovers for Stock-ish Ride Quality

I'm at 108k miles on the clock in my 2014, and I've started thinking it's probably about time to replace the shock absorbers. With the discontinuation of the rear struts for the 2014s, I think my only real choice would be to go with a set of coilovers.

With that in mind, who makes the best coilovers for everyday DD usage? I don't plan on taking the SS to the track or autocross or anything like that. Just something that will more or less ride like stock would be nice, and preferably something with stock ride height. I definitely do NOT want something that is going to lower the car as low as a Corvette or beat your brains out on rough pavement. That's a real problem here in Atlanta where they never seem to pave their roads and interstates very well.

Thanks a lot!
If I was looking to keep stock characteristics I would consider something for the Commodore for Oz. It would appear that they have some options, including a Monroe shock. I just spoke with Monroe here (Federal Mogul) who states that part does not cross reference to anything here. It would also appear than Koni has an offering as well, which is adjustable. It is referenced under a G8 part, but the Oz websites show the FE2 and FE3 rear shock to be the same which I cannot confirm. The Koni part number is 82 2567Sport
