you should get civic front shocks. Ive got KYB fronts right now and im all the way down on my coil over. I wish my front could go down a bit more. I believe 1st gen DSM rears are the go to as well.

What sleeves are you using? A ton of people swear by the GC coils on Koni Yellows. I too am trying to figure out what I would like to lower my V with. But if it's anything like a civic or any other track car, people love Koni's!

Im lowered on KYB GR2's + Skunk2 sleeve coilovers. KYB Doesnt make an ITR shock, which is what i plan on replacing my CRV shocks with. So im unsure as to what im going to go with. The Koni yellows are adjustable, but their also twice the price of the GR2's.

koni yellows are worth the cash. the quality and range of rebound adjustability is just superior to anything i've experienced, even for double the money.
