If you're going to upgrade the springs/shocks, you might as well invest in a full blown coil over system with adjustable shock dampeners.

You're going to be spending a little bit more, but you're going to getting significantly more product.

i thought about that but i dont need all that plus i know i can get adjustable shocks id put them on soft mode. i already have the springs i just cant fins the skunk2 shocks anywere for tc just koni and some others but not skunk2 and im not to sure about mix matching i want strut and spring no coils thanx tho i dont kno what it is ill pay the same for my setup as a great coil over butthey wouldnt be used to there potential but i will save this way and its just my style i always find the cheaper prices for instance my weapon r header was 513 includind s pipe cel eliminator and shipping and skunk2 springs 140 total all brand new these shocks are giving me the most trouble so fa. but if any1 can find adjustable skunk2 struts shocks for 06 tc let me kno or a shock that is compatible and ill find the best price and let you kno where... thanx again

i rocked the ground control coilovers with Koni yellows on my old civic. by far the best handling setup ive had/ridden with, and i used to like to ride slammed. now even though i'd rather take a performance oriented drop verses just an aggressive stance i'd probably go the same route.

they're pricey but well worth the money. plus i think they have a decent warranty backing them up too.

and please review how the ride is and definately, definately post pics! i was going to get those but decided to go with the hotchkis setup (after your review i may just change my mind)
