01 civic ex coupe struts

What struts do I need to replace my front struts on this car. Im looking for something that will give me a bit of performance over stock. I will be using my stock springs as well not ready to lower the car yet





PS: as you can see above I tried koni sports but they didnt fit my car saddly and would have required me to cut the stock shock. So if you guys could PLEASE help me find some struts with the bottom mount already assembled

Koni, is one of the best that you can get, but it does require you to cut the stock shocks. If your just looking for an OEM replacement, but performs better, I recommend Tokico HP blue.

But if you already got the Koni yellows, I recommend you put those in.

I think they were call Tokico D-spec, those are pretty good shocks, and they are adjustable.

Did you read the DIY on installing those Konis? A lot of people would rather put in the Konis.
