shocks basically are the same thing,
springs are stiffer on the itr though!

i would be inclined to believe that DC2R shocks offer stiffer dampening. These aren't your standard off the shelf civic/integra shocks. If you look into the Bilstein catalogue, replacements for type R and non type R are different part numbers.. The type R replacement having uprated dampening. This is done for a reason.

not why would they be the same

they would be matched to the springs rates

i throw away eg shocks and only use itr ones if im using stock stocks

well im running ITR shocks, and tbh they dont feel that great, but i really think with 180+kw atw they just dont cut it haha
