Default Coil over experiance?

I have had a coil overs on my integra and civic but never on my rsx. I have liked my ground controls on my eg, but when I had skunk2's on my integra they rode really rough. I have noticed quite a few people with the skunk's on their rsx's. I wondered if anyone here had them? How do they ride? I am considering getting them for my rsx but I don't know if they will require getting new struts or if the stock ones will hold up.

If you lower em down too much you will blow your struts in no time. I also heard you have to cut the some of the spring pearch so you can lower em down farther. I was also thinking of getting skunk2's but them decided to save and get tein SS. Im really glad I waited and got them Im lowerd about 1.75 And it still rides good.

i have ground controls, but i am now going to switch to tein SS's. Its not bad at first, but then the shocks start to go and the ride is pretty rough and gets to be annoying and unbareable.

How many miles have you gotten out of the shocks until they became unbareable?

Maybe I need to save my pennies. Hopefully I can get the teins. Sounds like they are the way to go.

Tein are suppose to be great but I know that a very popular setup on Integra's are ground controls with KYB adjustable shocks
