Swift springs! They have applications for Evo GSR and Evo MR. I am very happy with my Swifts on my MR.

The last I checked WORKS was still one of only two manufacturers offering MR/Bilstein-specific springs for the EVO. Ours settle the front and rear equally (about an inch) while still maintaining good ride quality and improving performance.

+1 on Swift and Works with only the MR spec springs for the Bilstein's.

Happy with my Swifts on my IX MR. Not too much of a drop, suggest a rear sway bar, adjustable set on middle to finish it off.

I have the WORKS "Ride Springs" for the MR, and in my humble opinion, they are the PERFECT drop height for the MR. It looks appropriately lower than stock, but not "slammed" --- and I haven't even scraped a driveway yet. (knocks on wood)
