Spring options for stock ride height?

I have the OME 40mm springs currently and my wagon is 6'8" (203cm). I love it but I am moving to the city where parking garages are often 6'6" (198cm). I have scraped on a water pipe in the past.

What springs are available that give the stock ride height? I prefer stiffer springs.

Also, is there a spring combo that will level my wagon? I have spring spacers I can use but if I can keep my 40mm front springs and get shorter rear springs to solve my problem, that would work too.

I found two lowering springs, H&R and Lorrinser. Unsure if one is better.

I just found the JWO Factory ride height coil springs. They literally address all my concerns lol.
Aftermarket cheaper pricing
Softer than stock but stiffer than g500.
Levels out the vehicle
Stock height.

I am very sad that I must lower the vehicle but I just can't do street parking in the neighborhood I am moving into. Ill try these out. At least I can keep my lifted springs for when I move out of the city.
