I need suspension advice

I have an 89 accord and its lowered with intrax springs. The car is on it original struts and the car hits pretty hard on the bumps and cracks on the road. I ve heard about short through struts but can find them(mabey cause im in canada). Would my problem be solved with newer struts thanx

Re: I need suspension advice

Yes you should upgrade the struts, its never a good idea to use the stock parts when lowering.

Koni
Bilstein
KYB
Tokico

you can find those parts all over

Re: I need suspension advice

The only real way to get a smooth ride w/ lowered springs on a 3rd gen is to get revalved billsteins. Those Accords just don't stand up to lowering very well. They're hella expensive but the ride will feel better. I've heard that Koni and Billstein struts are become VERY scarce and they don't intend on making anymore so I'd hurry.
