Default Which struts should I get?

I have a 92 civic hatch with a b20vtec in, I have coilovers on, I have 18's and my shocks are dead. I'm looking to buy some struts, what do you guys recommend. On my 93 integra I had the tokico illumina's. they were good but I really didn't adjust them too much, also all my other friends and people that have them don't either. Should I go with just the tokico blues? anybody else have these, how are they?? Whats the best place to buy for a good price?

I'm looking to buy some struts,
Since it's a tech board, we ought to be technical.
It would be very unfortunate for you to buy struts, as your car uses shocks in an assembly that LOOKS like a strut (but doesn't work exactly like a strut because it's not an integral part of the suspension geometry, and rather exists to control the motion).

That being said, a Koni Threaded Suspension Kit is what I recommend. Damper and matched spring ready to be installed, and height and damp adjustable too.
