Default Ground controls with what shock?

I have a set of ground controls for my integra and am looking for shocks.
Do the Bilstein and Koni's match up with the GC's without an adaptor? What shocks would you suggest I get with this setup?

Both the Koni shocks and the Bilstein shocks require an adapter to make a nice fit with the ground control sleeves. The adapters become more expensive after you already have the ground controls in your posession made for the stock type of shocks, so it would have been better to have made up what kind of shocks you want with your ground controls before you had bought the ground controls.


I think that going with either the Bils or the Koni's would be the best choice, the difference between the two being the adjustability factor.

Later,
Jon

It all depends what you're looking for. Go with Tokico Blues if you dont want any adjustability, and are just looking for a stock that will perform under the conditions. If you're looking for adjustability, the Yellows are the way to go.

Although a GC/Koni setup would put you back almost as much as Tein SS'.

how much would an adaptor be in my case? Do I need one for Tokikos?
