Default good combo for springs/shocks?

Wassup! I have recently bought a set of R-SR down springs for my 95 Accord and was wondering what shocks would complement the springs well. I was thinking either KYB AGX or maybe even Koni Yellows, but I think the Koni's are pretty expensive. Basically, I'm just looking for a semi-race tuned ride. Nothing TOO stiff. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

kyb agx's should be fine. how low of a drop are those??? if they're not that low you could get tokico blues.

why didn't you get the cup kit like me? theycome with yellows painted silver. anyhow, i'm a koni fan. i would go with koni reds if you don't mind them being internally adjustable (mine are in teh rear). but kyb are nice since they are ext adj. i know konis are made in holland (mine are), but not sure where kyb's are made. anyhow, if i didn't get my cup kit, i was gonna get either kyb agx or koni reds.

rsr springs have really good-riding rates. my friend had them on his lude with stock shocks, and it didnt ride that much different from stock

currently running tokiko blues on my neuspeed sports and they are about the worst shocks you could ever get . they are so bouncy which doesnt go over well with my wtype lip kit . go koni if u want to do it right . i have never talked to anyone with the yellows that ever had regrets . that says a lot .

Cool cool, guys and gals. Thanks much for the input. By the way, my R-SR down springs are 1.75" drop all around. Sorry for making all of you guess . Yeah, I'm still deciding on either Koni's or KYB's. I guess I'll try and do my homework on both of them. I'm still open for suggestions as to what shocks would go well with my R-SR down springs. Thanks!
