Default Good match? H&R Sport Springs with Tokico Illuminas

I have a 98 honda accord i4. I've been wanting to lower it for days! I just don't know wat kind of set up to use. I already purchased a set of H&R Sport springs that will lower it 1.5"/front and 1.2"/rear, but I don't know what kind of shocks I should go with. I'm looking to spend about $400. I know koni yellows are great, but I just can't afford them for ~$550.

with 400 you have a couple of choices if you purchase off ebay or H-t, i personally like the AGX or Koni's but if you dont mind getting a used set itll be alot cheaper than 400..

I know the Illuminas are sold with H & R springs as a bundle, but I'm not sure which of the springs that H&R offers.

h&r sport and koni yellows = teh bomb

do yourself a favor and save up another week, or month if you have to. its only ~$150 more. i have h&r sport and koni yellows on my 94 and the ride is , in other words, perfect. right now i have the setting to where it feels exactly like stock. i've tried playing with the settings and it can get so much stiffer than the tokicos i had on my gsr.

haha, all right....thx for the info fellas. I know Koni Yellows are good, but i guess it was just the money situation. So i guess saving up for another couple weeks won't hurt if I'mma get wat i want.
