Default Tokico Blue vs. KYB GR-2

I have a 93 Accord EX that I'm hoping to lower on Neuspeed Sports, which are a 1.8/1.7 drop. I had planned on getting Tokico Blues, but have heard some negative feedback. Would KYB GR-2's be a better choice? And don't even recommend KYB AGX's or Tokico Illuminas, because I don't need adjustability right now and THEY'RE OUT OF MY PRICE RANGE! So what do you all think?

I might sell my suspension. I'm the 3rd owner of the Neuspeed sports, but only one owner used them for less than 6 motnhs. And brand new AGX's. If I do sell, it'll be a good price. Not sure yet though.

Personally, I'd pick the Blues over the GR-2s. A friend of mine has Blues on her '94 Integra (with H&R Sport) and it rode great with 18's!

Don't get blues I have em and wish I didn't...at the very least get the Koni yellows, at least the dampening in them doesn't go out in less than a year

At the very least get Koni yellows? Ha, aren't they like some of the best? Anyway, I heard the Tokico Blues have a lifetime warranty? If that's the case I would probably be willing to go with them if they'd be replaced every time they blew. :dunno:

I have the blues on my 6g...w/ eibach sportlines (1.8 drop) and 18s....ride is very comfy and have had no probs for the entire 1.5 years since I first got em. Best bang for buck IMO. But they don't do so well for any drop over 2 inches. A friend had them on his teg and it was very bouncy because he's smacked 3.5 inches (or more I think).
