H&R vs. Koni

Hello everyone,
I recently bought a 2004 TSX. I am a firm believer in wheel gap is of the devil. I have done a little research and am looking for more info and input on the H&R OE springs paired with stock struts. OR the Koni Yellows with OEM springs.

I know that the drop is not a huge amount with either of these but I do not want a big drop. I want to stay as close to stock ride quality as possible with just a little increase in performance and eliminating wheel gap.


What do you guys recommend?

I'd definitely go with the Koni Yellows. They are more performance oriented, will drop you a bit more than the others (but not slam your car down) and can handle lowering springs if you decide to go down that route.

I have the H&R springs and they work just fine - feels just like stock. The Konis would be a little bit sportier.

In retrospect I think I should have gone a bit lower - a full inch all around would have done the trick (eg. the A-Spec kit or maybe the Eibach Pro-Kit). The Konis would come close to that though at 20mm.

Keep in mind that the install price will be the same for whatever you get so the price difference is actually fairly close.
