since you want something stiff....get Skunk2s....but just make sure you get a set of DECENT shocks or the ride will be really bad because from my personal experience with Skunk2s....they are REALLY stiff....at least compared to Ground Controls....

dont bother with the HA's they are prone to rust. Save a few more pennis and get the RA's. They are made out of Aluminen and wont rust. plus they are lighter thent he steal HA's

I put on Ground Controls and Tokico Blues on my Dx and it was stiff. Kinda too stiff for my taste. But then I bought another CRX. And the new one is a Si with a B16. So I switched them out and I love the ride that they give. They are perfect for me.
