Can't give you much input on those shocks, but I would honestly look into getting some other springs if your looking for handling out of them.

i think people said they are just good oem replacments, but you should get eibachs sportlines or nuespeed springs and get koni's adjustables even though they cost x3 more

everyone has their own perference. but what are your expectations of shocks/struts and springs?

i think the shocks you have now are fine for daily driving but word of mouf that the tokico blues are better but i am NOT sure if that is true. keep the ones you have now, they are great and you already spent the cash for them.

as for the springs, consider a better set of springs than dropzone. dropzone springs/coilovers belong in the generic/knockoff catergory. check out some better springs like eibach, neuspeed, etc.

highly suggest you to read the suspension faq here: http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/fa...s#faq_susp_faq
and the shock/strut faq here: http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=171892
