shocks for eibach sportline springs

[xluben]

i finally bit the bullet and have a set of sportlines on the way!

now i need to decide what shocks to go with.

i love how 00Accord4cyl's car looks on sportlines w/tokico blues, and i was
thinking of getting them to save money. but is it worth the extra $100+ to get
the illumina's?

i'm not going to need to adjust for track/street, so if the blue's are ok all around,
i'll just get them and not worry about adjustments. i've also seen the koni
yellow's recommended a lot, but i think they're out of my price range.

anything else i should be looking at? right now i'm planning on getting the tokico blue's.

yes and youll see why once you adjust the dampening from 5-1 the first time

Personally, I'm very happy with my Tokico Blues. It feel pretty comfortable to me

Meh, i wish i went with sportlines too. I went with a prokit and now i wanna go lower . But then again, I don't need aftermarket shocks.

buy a new setup. i'm sure a lot of people out there want the pro-kits. for me, potholes in Oklahoma would kill me already so pro-kits for me is fine.

Lol. Theres only one dam spot in my city that has alot of potholes right before the freeway entrance, about 4 of them in a row, and i have to dodge them. I think that **** screwed up my axel the first time i hit it.

yeah, i'm pretty sure any pro kit put up for sale will be gone in a matter of days.

i was on the lookout for some the last couple months but didn't see any.

but then the sportlines popped up, so i snatched them up

there's a LOT of people out there looking for a cheap drop (no new shocks needed), so a pro kit should be easy to sell.

to me, i wanted a mild drop so my parents wouldn't know. LOL. and they still haven't noticed the drop! haha
