Well i am planning to purchase some shocks and i dont want to empty my pocket. I want to know which shocks are nice for daily driven car that is lowered. thanks

 

Well it depends if it is lowered with coilovers or springs. If its just a mild drop and you dont want empty your wallet Id say youd be looking at the kyb gr-2's, or maybe the adjustable agx's.

 

If you want really basic, Tokico HP (blues). If you want better, Illumina's or KYB AGX's.

Look in the "basic guide to accords" above you

 

KYB AGX's

 

I agree with accordselux. Tokico HP (blues) are a good upgrade from stock to aftermarket shocks but are not the best. I would suggest Tokico Illuminas cause thats what I'm going to have installed in a week or two.

 

Tokico blues are good for the money. But for a liitle more you'll want to go with the illuminas. KYB AGX also not a bad choise.

got em, love em.

 

well i wanted to purchase the illuminas but it is said that their for non vtec accord but i have a vtec will they still fit. and i also want to get some springs and i wanted to know how low i could go to just go on top of the wheel of some 18's but with out hitting any speed bumps.

 

that vtec/non vtec means absolutly nothing

18" + accord =

 

man accord look sweet on 18' if u want to race i would go with 17 and lower but i want a show car.

 

well anyways am planning to get the illuminas but i dont know if i should go with a regular spring from eibach or the ground control coil over which is better just for show

why do you care about new struts if you want a show car? do you want a dailydriver show car, or a show car? if you just want a show car, who gives a **** about new struts? just take urs off and paint em bright neon green!

 

My friend has an accord on 18's with a body kit. It isnt lowered one millimeter. He stalls out trying to idle over speedbumps. Have you ever seen a teeter-totter? You know one kid on each side and it pivots back and forth? That's what your car looks like if you lower it and have 18 inches and you get to something higher than a leaf off the ground. Since I only lowered mine 1.25" on stock wheels (SE alloys are the ****!), I laugh as I pass over those speedbumps with ease.

I figured he wouldnt do it if he had to go over 2 speedbumps in and 2 speedbumps out every day from school...

 

I am definately liking the kyb agx's.

great product for the money... coximports has great deals.

 

Koni Yellows are excellent, not bad on your wallet either.

 

man i want a daily driven show car and i really would like it if u guys tell me which is better shocks or ground control coil overs

 

personally I am very underimpressed with the performance of the ground controls. They are shitty ride quality in my opinion for how much you pay. I also think accords are better suited with a spring set up not a coilover set up. Secondly, for the money if you want adjustablity, kyb agx is definitley the way to go for the money. Lastly, a nice spring to compliment the agx's would be either the eibach sportline or prokit. The prokit is about 1.25 drop and sport is right at 2.
