springs and struts/shocks?
I have a 1996 4 door, and it sits way too high. I want to know that if I get springs will I have to replace anything else such as struts or shocks?
I have been told that if i replace the springs and leave the stock struts and shocks that it will be very wobbley and will like bounce when you hit pot holes or even bumps.
I have been thinking about getting these springs because they seem to have a pretty good reputation.

If you get spring you don't have to replace struts/shocks... Though I would highly recommend it because your car will ride like sh** if you don't. Good spring choice with the TIEN's!!!

Yeah i've heard alot of people with accords like the tein s techs...but thanks forthe info., thats what ive been told. The thing is its probobly a smart idea to wait untill spring to buy them because having the car lowered right as the weather is getting bad isnt a good idea.
and if i have to get struts and shocks I found these.

the $128 front and rear... does anyone know of any that would be better?

I think the ones you listed are $128 for just the front.... Here's a link to some Tokico strut/shocks and lowering springs combo for $380... These lower the car 1.5" front/ 1.5" back

Thanks. And oh yeah i know. I meant the two illumina ones listed on that page, the front and rear, are 128 each. So that would be 256 for the whole car, and another 155 for the teins. So i guess that would save me like 40 bucks if i bought the package.
The thing is I probobly wouldn't order them untill april-ish because its winter, so ihave some thinking time. But either way thanks for the advise.

If you plan to lower the car an inch or more than you will need a camber adjustment kit. Klrspaz is trying to get a groupbuy together for Koni's if you're interested in them. They're much better than Tokico's.

Not trying to hijack your thread here but does anyone know if my factory struts/shocks/springs 0ff my '99 2 door will fit a '99 4 door Accord? I've got a sale pending and need to know...
