shocks/struts for a lowered accord
I lowered my 4-door accord a few months ago & now that the springs have settled, I am looking to upgrade the shocks & struts to some out the ride before I manage to blow-out one of the factory struts.
What would be the best shock/strut combo for my application? How much can I expect to pay? Where can I go for the best price?
1998, 4-door, 4-cylinder, 1.5" eibach pro kit
THANKS!!!!!

I suggest Tokico HP Series for a moderate priced strut that wont bust your wallet. They will last awhile on low springs I had them on my 91 w/ H22 for 2 years.. no problems.

best bang for the buck: kyb agx shocks
best shock all around: koni yellow shocks
you can find good deals at groupbuycenter.com.. cox import has the best deals on the kyb's.. both shocks have externally adjustable damping settings and are the recommended the most. :thumbup:

I'm rolling on GC coilovers and tokico illumina shocks... they sell them in pairs, 219 front, 219 rear at speedpeople.com... i got mine from landspeedracing.com and they matched that price. I've got my car lowered about 2" all around and they ride great. I've heard horror stories about 6th gen accords and HP shocks so i went with illuminas... holla
