Which springs/shocks combination????

I'm just trying to figure out which combination of springs and shocks will give me the best ride quality. Plus I've decided to go with 18s and not 19s because there is too much risk around where I live of damaging a rim. What would work best for me?

dude honestly, anything with the koni's in that setup will do you some good...if you want a moderate drop go comptech/koni...if you want low low, go eibach/koni...You will need the koni's more with the eibach's, i would wait if you just wanna drop with comptech...Go coilovers if you tha kill two birds with one stone type of nigga...Shyne

Go with what ya want, but I'm going with my Comptech's, and Tokico Illumina's (Illumina's next summer.) The ride is pretty good with stock dampers. I don't like the slammed look, just a nice OE "M" series look. Acura could learn a thing or two from BMW.

Good luck - Jim

I got eibach springs, and it has a very uneven drop. I'm very picky, so that 1/2 inch sag in the back really gets to me. I don't know if koni's will get rid of that sag tho. For people with Konis. How many turns did you set the front shocks and the rear shocks?

I had my rear seat out for a month testing for best neutral handling. Came to a precise 10 ribs on the Koni dial rear and 8 ribs on the front, a little stiff but I've gotten use to it.
