Default What kind of shocks are you guys running on?

I have some H&R sports springs under my bed right now, waiting to buy some shocks. i have a 98 civic coupe and i was wondering what kinda shock would compliment it nicely..i can afford the expensive crap around 200-300 would be nice thanks

Its suspension...quality matters a lot

Illuminas and Ground Controls dropped 2.3 for about half year now. Ride's a little bumpy but that's the price with coils

I would recommend the illuminas and the KYB AGX but not the lower model shocks.

I'm running Zeal B6s.
I've heard a lot of people pairing their H&R/Eibach/Ground Control, etc. with Koni Yellows, a lot of people recommend that.

I have AGX's. I like them, hate my skunk2 springs though.

But Illuminas are nice also. I think either way you go you will be happy. But I would chose AGX's again if it was me.
