Re: oem shock replacement
If your in North America I think your only options are:
Bilstein B8's or Koni Yellows for the rear that would be closest to an oem style rear strut.

Curious if anyone has used Eibach dampers with OEM springs.
EDIT: I just checked Eibach's site and didn't see any dampers listed. Just Pro-Alignment parts.

Re: oem shock replacement
My understanding is Eibach discontinued the Multi-Pro R2's due to limited Honda sales.

They had some Pro-Dampers years ago that could be used with OEM ITR or Eibach ITR Pro-Kit springs. Low Honda sales must be why they also discontinued 92-95 Civic Pro-Dampers, which actually work well with stock springs on my 94 sedan. OEM Honda/Showa shocks for the Civic are also discontinued.
Re: oem shock replacement
I'm running B8's with OEM ITR springs. They are just too stiff for my liking and where I live that have horrible roads. I'll probably get some Koni yellows and put them at the softest settings and warranty my B8's to get fresh ones and resell them. Sad that some parts that usually need changings are being discontinued.
