I would say Skunk 2 Springs?? I mean i have non brand coilover right now on my '94 Accord Ex 4 dr straight out from ebay, and its really rough without new shocks for coilovers, but after i replace my old shock i should be good.

To clear things up there's no BEST suspension, a uber drag coilover will do a half *** job in autocross, a "mad tight" road racing suspension will crap out and toss you around if you using it on the street.

now we got the basic idea, now ask yourself the following questions

1) what is your budget

2) what is the primary goal for this mod

3) is your accord a daily driver

and just for the record, skunk2 coilover/spring sucks major ball, sorry if i burst your bubble

I just got the Eibach Sportlines and it is a pretty good drop with a ride quality that isnt that bad. Not to mention i am still riding on stock shocks. I have 215/45/17 and they give me a very small wheel gap in the wheel well. I must say i am happy with them.

When I was looking for suspension this past winter, Tein Basics were highly suggested. This is the coilover I went with not only becuase of the recommendations from people who used this coilover, but because the price is right too I'd recommend this setup unless you want to drop a serious amount of cash.

I have neuspeed springs and kyb gr2 struts on my 96 accord lx and i have about a 2-2.5in drop. the ride is smooth and not very costly springs were I believe $170 maybe $200 and the kybs i got for $58 each. But I am sure sometimes its where you go and who you know and see if they can gvie you a deal.
