Default 4door with H&R race springs.... stock shocks?

First off all I want to request pics of 94-01 4door Integras with H&R race springs... sorry if this has been done already but I didn't find it and I know it's annoying when people ask to see pics of a certain car with certain springs but meh

Also, for people who have run H&R race springs with stock shocks, how was the ride? How long did the shocks last before they blew up? TIA to everyone who helps out

you can't run h&r race springs with stock shocks they will blow like, in a day,
i believe the rate sare 450F-350R or 450F-400R,

i personally i have h&r racing springs on agx's and they feel good, koni's are a better choice if you have the extra $$$..

save yourself the time of installing twice and get new shocks first

That's what I was thinking myself, but I saw a few people say they ran them with stock shocks so I thought I'd ask.

SilverDc2 - so are the agx's good for them? I *also* heard that the H&Rs will not work on those either. I guess I've been *hearing* a lot of stuff lately so that's why I made this thread, to ask.

yea its feels pretty good, i've had them for a while now, my friend had tockico blues and they are too bouncy,

agx's and h&r go the best so i've heard,

koni & ground control/eibach and h&r & agx's

I have H&R springs on my coupe and it rides smooth, but getting new shocks would be nice.

running stiff spring rates on stock strut will not blow out the struts.

bottoming out on stock struts blows them out.

*with that said... i used to have stock struts w/ h&r race springs(red ones) and they rode pretty good.

yeap i agree, people say stock shocks are that bad but if the shocks dont have many miles on them, they will only blow if you bottom out.
