Default best struts to buy?

I just got a set of coilover sleeves for my 97 accord. The ride is ok surprisingly enough but I still want to replace the struts. I want the struts that will give me the best ride quality out there. I am trying to go as close to stock as possible. From what I have gathered from searching, I think that tokico 5 way adjustables are the best way to go. Are these okay or is there anything better out there. Any and all opinions welcome. thanks in advance for all your time and help!!!:beer: :rockon:

The Tokico Illumina 5 way adjustable are probably one of the better shocks on the market. Some say better than Koni Yellows. They are pretty much in the same price range, but I believe the Konis are cheaper.

Actually, if you're looking to buy a set, let me know, I just recently got a hookup who can get them for me very very cheap.

I have KYB AGX and I'm happy with them so far. But I only lowered my car 1.75" If you go lower these shocks won't be suitable.
