Exclamation Guessing the rear shocks blew out? time for new suspension

so today i started to hear loud clunking noises from the rear shocks when i would turn or hit a bump. guessing the rear shocks are starting to, if not already going out. im still on oem suspension and the car has 90k on it and im guessing my 20" rims also had something to do with it with the extra weight.

well regardless, i guess its time to get a new suspension system at this point. ive been looking around and deciding to go with springs and shocks.

For shocks, the Tokico HP's are appealing to me because of the price and also the fact that the Accord ones fit our car, and they are cheaper than the TL ones. Ive heard mixed reviews on tokico shocks, most good with a few iffy ones. Other than that, i was looking at the Koni SP3/Sport shocks. price wise its a bit higher than the Tokico's but ive heard only good things about koni.

For springs, im between Tein S-techs, Eibach Pro kit, or possibly the H&R Sport kit. i only want a decent drop of an 1" to 1.5" so these were the springs that matched what i want.

Any suggestions and help would be much appreciated as i am looking to order the suspension soon since i am getting more and more worried about the shocks everyday with the noises.

Okay, im convinced getting the Tokico HP Blue'sm now just springs.

stuck between Tein S.Tech, Tein H.tech, Eibach Pro, and H&R Sports.

I dont want the tucked look, but want the wheel gap gone.
