H&R sports w/ stock struts
Just wondering how the ride quality will be..
I picked up a set of H&R sports a little while ago and really wanna get them installed.. but I just wanna find out if my stock shocks will blow very quickly.
I'm saving up for either illumina's or agx's.. but gotta pay for tuition and rent at the end of the month =(
I've got 95K so far on my ride..
u guys recommend waiting till i can afford some shocks? or u think i'll be ok to ride on these springs alone for a while?
btw it's for daily driving conditions right now.. no aggressive driving for me..
thanks for yer input

ive been on my sports for more than a year now on stock shocks..
ride is good, can't complain
my shocks had 200,000 km on them and are still ok
I had to replace my rears because i damaged the shock rod installing them but my fronts are originals

i would rather wait till i can afford some shocks.. but that could mean i'd have to wait till the end of summer when i start working again..
so that would suck to have these springs sitting here in my room collecting dust.. =P

I put almost 70,000 km's on my stock shocks and H&R Sports, and my stock shocks still ride fine. There are lots of variables that can contribute to ruining your stocks shocks. Rough roads, weight in the car, drop, etc. Springs aren't that hard to put on and take off again, so it's not really time consuming. I'd go for it till you have the cash for good shocks.

You'll be fine. I just installed sports on my stock shocks last night and I didn't loose any sleep. So what, even if they stock shocks blow...your plans are to replace them anyway cause they ain't worth anything. At least you get some fun out of them and your car while you save.
Also, I had RSR Race springs on stock shocks on my other civic for over 3 years and they were fine...and that thing was dumped.
