Default Suspension Route: Which way to go?

I've got a set of Eibach Sportlines (free) that I've been thinking about slappin on my 99 EK. My dilemma is that I'm going to need some new shocks and I'm not sure what route to go. Should I get new shocks and put the Sportlines on or just get a Tein Basic setup or something like that? Which would be best bang for the buck setup?

What do you use your car for? And if you plan on maybe trying autocross one time and then never doing it again, don't say anything other than "daily driving". No harm in telling the truth and getting the proper setup .

If you're seriously going to autocross I'd invest in some Koni Yellows and some Eibach springs with spring rates that will compliment the Konis and your preferred ride quality. VTECvoodoo works for Eibach and he can point you in the right direction or, better yet, get into the suspension forum and do a little research .

try these

i installed a set of agx adjustable on my accord with neuspring sports and fell in love, installed a set on my civic and wouldn't suggest anything else myself. on hard it holds the springs pretty well and on soft almost feels stock, they really only work well with soft sport style rims like the ones you picked up

i got the same set up in my 99 civic turbo, but i dont do autocross but i do do some canyon racing, and some other type stuff like that and its also my daily driver, and its a great set up... at least to me, but i also got front and rear sway bars on there too... and that fixes a lot of the steering it seemed like..
