Koni Yellow's with Ground Control's with Koni Springrates from TrueHonda. It took me almost a month to get them but Eddie was very helpful and explained everything.

how are the ground control? I'm strongly considering buying them. Read a ton of reviews but I'm a little scared they will squeak ghetto-style.

oh well I will go with them, I need to be able to adjust the height easily. You don't want to leave your car low with the winter in Minnesota...

My GC/Koni combo squeaks when its very low but only in the rear. all the rest of my suspension is stock except for a rear sway and f/r camber kit (dont think they make a difference). you dont need the front ones, even though i bought them.
