Personally I wouldn't use spacers on the inside on the shocks to force the ride height down. This will leave the car with no droop (suspension downtravel), which will make it very nervous over bumps, and decrease grip. If you want to lower ride height with the standard shocks, consider trimming one coil, or slightly more) off each spring. This will also stiffen the spring rate.
