H&R Sports w/Bilstein HD shocks?
I have an 89 CRX and I just ordered H&R Sport Springs that will drop the front 1.9" and the rear 1.8". People have told me to get the Bilstein HD monotube shocks, but everywhere I look it says that those are for the stock ride height. I called Bilstein and the guy said that as long as the spring itself is the same length as the stock then it should work. I love the reviews for Bilstein, but I don't want to get them and then end up ruining them because they weren't made for the drop. Any advice? Get them? Get something else? I know I've probly asked this same question more than once in other posts in a different form but I'm not a suspension wiz and any help would be great. Thanks!

I just ordered H&R Sports because I heard that (well, atleast on my car) they don't require replacement of struts or camber kits and the ride quality is still comparable to stock.

Re: H&R Sports w/Bilstein HD shocks?
I've been looking at Koni yellows too but I don't like the reviews about them. I hear that the paint comes off very easily and on some applications adjusting them requires disassembly. Any other advice on the Bilsteins? Anyone?

You will be fine w/ Bilstein's. No struts is really made for a drop - up to 2" drop is safe.
