Default swaping back to stock springs.

I am deciding to swap back on my stock springs. I currently have neuspeed race springs on stock shocks for about 4 months now. Should i replace the shocks with kyb gr-2 when i put back on my stock springs? or it should be fine with the stock shocks? i have an accord cb5. thx

even stock springs on a good set of shocks can do wonders for handling.

having neuspeed race springs on stock shocks likely beat them. maybe, maybe not.

a fresh set of shocks is always a good idea. i use illuminas with my stock springs and like it.

personally, i dont think koni's are very good with stock springs.

you can read my experience and koni's response. others do agree with me tho.

nope i'm not selling my car. i just want my ride to be back to normal, with no bounce and no worries. right now i have stock shocks with neuspeed springs. I am replacing it back to my stock springs and wondering if i should purchase some kyb gr-2 to replace the shocks as well.
