I have a 98 base prelude and i'm getting ground control coilovers do i need to get new shocks and struts in order to have smooth ride or can i just get shocks and not have to worry about a rough ride

 

Our cars have 4 shocks, no struts. And yes, you should get aftermarket performance shocks to accomodate the lower ride height and higher spring rates that you will get with the Ground Controls.

what kind of shocks do you recomend

 

If you are planning on AutoXing on them, go with Koni Sports since their off the shelf rebound rate is so quick. If not autoXing, the adjustable KYB AGXs are a considerably cheaper and competent alternative.

yup the koni yellows/ground controls combination is one of the best and most often talked about for the prelude. konis all the way!

 

can you recomend a website were i can get a good deal on everything

 

my car was fine at first w/the GC's installed..but my stock dampers are starting to wear, and my car is bouncing like a stunna

I'm ordering KYB's tommorow, adjustability is invaluable.

coximport.com has a good price on the KYB's...they have a 20.00 discount right now if you call in your order, and tell them you are a h-t member, they also have free shipping

I got my Ground Controls from overboost.com for 314.00 shipped.
