trust me... before you even start the install, go to the nearest honda dealership and get yourself some new rear shock bolts. There's a very good chance that they'll be seized.

 

plethoric33i can't afford the shocks right now right now, so how you think i got till they give out? when they give out is it that bad? like how will i notice?

reaper2022whoa dude, what do you mean they'll be seized?! lol bastards?!

 

Im not sure how long the stocks will last, Teins are designd to be able to work ok with stocks, but still will blow your shocks faster. Youll know when they blow...and youll feel every crack like its a curb!!! If you buy springs now and not shocks, thats twice the work for you or twice the installation fees your going to pay. Plus anytime you change anything on your suspension, youll most lkely need an allignment....twice if you dont buy the shocks and springs together.
Reapers right, If your doing the install yourself, buy some LCA bolts, they are usually impossible to get out with out damaging due to being seized.

 

damn....lol how much will regular after market shocks run me?

 

teins are a nice ride

 

tein s techs shouldnt affect your shocks THAT much. The company said they designed and reccomend the springs to go with factory shocks..I think if youre low on cash, worry about it when it happens, (like me)

 

are you sure they're okay to use with oem shocks? lol and yeah man, we're on the same boat ; )

 

theyre designed to be used with oem shocks. In all honesty, you'll be fine with stock shocks but they will blow out quicker than they would with stock springs. I say just save up for new shocks and put everything on at once

and kyb makes pretty good (but still inexpensive) shocks.

 

that's exactly what i was looking into, the kyb gas shocks right? those seem awesome. i'm gonna see if i can hussle some money at work.

 

Tokico HPs are good and affordable.
