Found a smooth suspension set up!!!
I was re-searching the best setup for the 92-96 lude, I purchased some tein s tech
1.2 drop springs and tokico blue struts, this is coming from sprint 2.5 drop springs and factory struts. The handling is so much better as well as the ride is as smooth as glass. I highly recommend this setup I only wish I hadn't been so cheap when I did the original drop. Let me know what you have on your ride or what you found to be a good setup.

the tein s techs are probably the smoothest lowering springs I have ever rode on, they really did well with those.
my prelude has had them for like 2.5 years now, they ride great even on stock shocks, and they won't blow them out. Your setup will feel even better with the tokicos

Re: (cb7tougeracer)
I have tokiko rear struts
stock fronts
and ground control coilovers all around. Lowered all the way in the front, and half way in the rear.
its a little rough to say the least.

I have Skunk2 springs (actually, TylerC161's old ones) and they ride like ****. Haha
But seriously, get the Teins. If you are open to other options, I hear the Neuspeed springs are quite comfortable when paired with KYB AGXs.

I am all about my KONI/Eibach combo......
Although I have to say for 5yrs the Tokico/Eibach combo was awesome too.
Running Coilovers/Linear springs on the street is just silly......

Re: (MilanoLude)
Drag racing and handleing is actually improved since the new stance now allows for shock travel, I'll take some pics tonight of the new setup and post ones of the old setup as well

At least it would have been easy to work on the exhaust from that direction.

hey i beg to differ! at least in the bay area you need to be able to raise and lower the car when needed!!!
but i guess if its a daily driver a to b car that hardly ever sees the track then yeah.....coilovers are kinda pointless....
ground control and konis FTW!
otherwise....Endless!
