Default Shocks and springs

Hello members. Thanks for taking some time to view this post. I own an Accord CD5 and want to lower it but can't decide what shocks and springs to mount on my ride. There's many brands for both and I would love to get some suggestions to finally decide which to buy. I don't want it too low, just low enough to look smooth. Thank you guys and hope to receive some suggestions.

function & form is the bang for buck. around $600 for a set of FULL coilovers. The cost of struts that can handle the abuse of a drop is more than $100 pre strut. Then a set of GOOD coilover sleeves and springs will run you another $350+ easy. Also remember ALL 90-97 accord share the same suspension components. Just keep that in mind when doing your research

Niiiice. I'll keep that in mind man. Coilovers are my thing since I might have to adjust height from time to time depending on the trips I take.

when adjusting your coilovers you will need a alignment every time or you will eat up your tires

I know the op hasnt been on since late dec. but I'm wondering if he went with the BWR. For the less you can get FnF. Where did you find the deal? BBN?
