I personally would hunt down a set of A-Spec struts/springs... good excuse to upgrade.. but if you want a more cushy drive.. I don't know what to recommend.. keep an eye out for members selling their original TSX suspension bits.
Blown shocks - sensible replacement?
Car: 2005 Acura TSX
Just blown out my front struts over a car-eating pothole last week . . .

I plan on replacing all four struts-shocks but want to keep the OEM springs and ride height. However, I wouldn't mind trading a bit more handling for comfort. I am getting RSB too but no track days for this baby (have an old Integra for the hooligan stuff http://www.tsxclub.com/forums/images/icons/02 Laugh.png). And budget is a bit tight so coil-over setups are out. Recommendations?
Thanks in advance for any first hand knowledge.

I used Tokico Blues (HR's) on my 04 accord and the ride was ok... ($300 set of 4) not as soft as stock tho
i assume KYB's are in the same boat (same $, similar quality)
Go aspec or go Koni Yellow, or if you wanna spend $50 more get the neuspeed/koni shocks and you can even lower your car a tad ($600 pricetag tho)
toss out a want to buy (WTB) add on here and other acura sites .... im sure you'll get a response relatively quick
