Default For those of you that have H&R race springs, what shocks do you use?

i wanted to know which shocks you guys used on your H&R race springs? Seems like all the shocks out there only work with springs that lower your car only like 1.5 inches. is there any shocks that work with a 2.75 drop in the front and a 2.25 in the back? thanks

I had tokico illuminas and they didn't do it for me so I switched to koni yellows (adjustables) and my baby rides like a cadillac.

Well, i'm running Neuspeed race springs (same drop as H&R Race) with Tokico blues (non adjustable) and have had no problems with them at all. Ride is real smooth but it is a little bouncy in the rear which is making me think of changing to KYB AGX's to stiffen it up. It's not too bad of a bounce, don't worry. I would say if you want a real soft ride and don't want to spend too much $ get the tokicos. If you have the extra cash and would rather an adjustable ride stiffness then go with the AGX's. That's my opinion.

I have a review of Tokico "blues" on my un-updated Civic site & my H& R. It's similar to XTC already said.
