03 coupe, what shocks struts

What do you guys suggest for a nice comfortable ride? Im not planning to lower, I have stock rims and will get wheel spacers and 19 in rims in future

What else would I need to replace when replacing struts shocks

KYBs are available from our Marketplace under vendor suspension!

KYB shocks won't empty your wallet and they'll give you a factory ride for as long as you own your car! You don't need to replace anything while installing your shocks unless other suspension parts are worn out! Find an "Independent Brake/Alignment" shop in your neighborhood, everyone has at least one and all they do is suspensions. Not the big shops like Pep Boys/Sears or Firestone, I wouldn't take my Honda (lawnmower) to them!

Thanks, does 03 come with sports suspension or is it all the same?

What about mounts? I'm hearing some kind of creaking noise in the rear when slowly going in the driveway, I'm gonna replace the links. While I'm there if there's any common failed parts il replace them

There was no sport suspension in '03. That was on the '05-07 coupe models. All coupe model suspensions were the same in '03-04.
