Best replacement for tokico hu2934

MY rear shocks are busted . fronts still OK.
one of them is sagging in the rear ( a problem that pledges the Tokico Blue)
I tried getting a replacement but I hear that they dont make them no more.

Are there ANY reasonable replacements for the Tokico HU2934 to maintain similar ride ?

I am dropped on HR springs and Tokico Blues .
I was thinking of throwing the stockies on the back then get a new set all 4 corners when they go out.

<still plan on keeping the HR springs CombO>

I heard Bilstein makes shocks for our cars too.

Is this a common problem with the blues? I thought they were supposed to be a good option for our cars.

I put 57K miles with CT springs on mine & they were still ok.
May just depend on where you live, the roads & weather.

I'm using Koni Yellows on a non-lowered car. I like the handling, but the ride is springy over undulations in the road surface. The ride is smoother over small bumps compared to my 106K mile OEM struts. I've put maybe 1,500 miles on the Koni's. The springyness gets to be a real problem on certain highways with a consistent repetitive undulation. There's highway in Minnesota, 35W that is nauseating to drive with the Koni's. Not sure if I have a dis-harmony with front and rear settings. I've got the fronts at 3 out of 5 (5 is stiffest) and the rears are supposedly 2/5 but might be 3/5 based on the way the mechanic showed me how to adjust the fronts (he said they were on 2/5 but I later found out they were on 3/5).

I'm pretty happy with my Bilstien sport shocks. Using them with H&R OE sport springs (for 98-02 V-6 Accord).

It's not the ideal shock for a lowered spring but it can work. It's the same as running an OE shock.

This is another option. It will probably be more expensive than KONI's though so it's better to get the KONI yellows since they have damping adjustment.

Really? I thought the KONI Yellows were crazy expensive.
