wont get a smooth ride with aerospeed coil overs, but to answer you question. Read the "Guide to basic accords" https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=797528

Get Koni sports. You should go with a different spring set up. You wont get a good ride with those. You should get Eibach springs, They are close to the OEM feel.

prokit=very comfy, yet stiff/firm, much better than S-tech or H&R

and that's from personal experience

if you're getting aftermarket shocks, then go for the eibach sportlines. they give you a lower drop than the pro-kit without sacrificing too much ride comfort (as opposed to some other springs)
