Blue_Honda_Civ will become famous soon enough

true coilovers

I was wondering, I have been looking at the Tein ss and I was wondering
after I got those do i need new shocks. I have been searching but have not
found anything covering it. And i would probly get a chamber kit to so is
it recommended to get new shocks.

Any input is welcomed thanks.

I appreciate the fact that you have searched. True coilovers have an integrated shock so you do not need them. They are a full replacement. You pull out the OEM shock and spring and put in the coilover. Please read the FAQ in my signature. That explains the difference. Camber kits are recommended. If you do not know much about lowering your car, PLEASE PLEASE do research before you do so. Things can end up bad if you do the wrong thing. Learn before you do anything. Don't just lower because it is "cool."
