Honda Accord Coilovers
Honda Accord coilovers are sold per chassis generation, not as one universal kit: Godspeed Project covers the 1998-2002, 2003-2007, 2008-2012, 2013-2017, and 2018-2022 Accords with its MonoSS line, while Megan Racing's Street Series fits the 2013-2017 car. Expect threaded-body height adjustment, 8-12 kg/mm front springs, and $750-$1,099 per kit at the time of writing.
Specs below come from each manufacturer's current fitment listing; always confirm your exact trim (engine, ADS) against the retailer's chart before ordering.

Which coilovers fit your Accord
The Honda Accord has gone through six chassis generations since 1998, and coilover kits are sold per generation rather than one-size-fits-all. Godspeed Project builds MonoSS coilovers for the CG/CF (1998-2002), CM (2003-2007), CP/CS (2008-2012), CR/CT (2013-2017), and CV (2018-2022) chassis, each with its own part number and spring rate. Megan Racing covers the CR2 generation (2013-2017 sedan and coupe) with its Street Series kit, which shares fitment with the Acura TLX.

Drop, alignment, and tire clearance
None of the kits in the table below publish a fixed drop-in-inches spec; both Godspeed's MonoSS and Megan's Street Series are threaded-body coilovers, so ride height is set by the installer within the shock's travel rather than a factory-set drop. How low an Accord sits depends on where the lower mount is threaded, not the part number alone.
Lowering a strut-based front end changes camber, so plan on a camber-aware alignment after install, especially past a mild drop. See how to adjust coilovers for setting ride height and corner-balancing, and coilovers installation and cost for what a shop typically charges to install and align a kit like this.
Generation differences to check before you buy
The 2018-2022 CV-chassis Accord is the one generation with a documented catch: trims built with the factory Adaptive Damper System (ADS) need a disable module alongside a non-ADS coilover kit, or the dashboard throws a suspension warning light. Confirm whether your Accord has ADS before ordering a CV-chassis kit.
Earlier generations are simpler. Godspeed lists its CG/CF (1998-2002), CM (2003-2007), and CP/CS (2008-2012) kits as fitting all trims, and CR/CT (2013-2017) covers both the pre-facelift and facelifted sedan/coupe under one part number. Where an Accord shares a platform with an Acura, such as the 9th-gen Accord and the Acura TLX, the suspension hardware is often the same and parts cross over, but double-check the exact years on the retailer's fitment chart before buying.

FAQ
Will Honda Accord coilovers fit both the sedan and coupe?
For the generations in the table above, yes. Godspeed's MonoSS kits for the CM (2003-2007), CP/CS (2008-2012), and CR/CT (2013-2017) Accord are listed as fitting coupe and sedan body styles under the same part number.
Do 2018-2022 Accord coilovers affect the Adaptive Damper System warning light?
Yes, on CV-chassis Accords built with the factory Adaptive Damper System. Godspeed's product page notes you need a disable module to turn off the resulting service light after installing a non-ADS coilover kit.
How much do Honda Accord coilovers cost?
At the time of writing, Godspeed's MonoSS kits list at $750 across every Accord generation, and Megan Racing's Street Series kit for the 2013-2017 Accord runs $989-$1,099 on the manufacturer's page. Street prices from retailers are often lower.
What spring rates come with Accord coilover kits?
Godspeed's MonoSS front/rear spring rates get stiffer on older chassis: 12 kg/mm front and 8 kg/mm rear on the 1998-2002 CG/CF, 10/6 kg/mm on the 2003-2007 CM and 2008-2012 CP/CS, and 8 kg/mm front with 6-8 kg/mm rear on the 2013-2017 CR/CT and 2018-2022 CV. Megan's Street Series for the 2013-2017 Accord uses 8 kg/mm front and 6 kg/mm rear.
Do I need an alignment after installing coilovers on my Accord?
Plan on one. Dropping ride height on a strut front end changes camber, and most installers recommend a camber-aware alignment right after fitting coilovers. See how to adjust coilovers for the order of operations.
Can I use Acura TLX coilovers on a Honda Accord?
Often, yes, for the 2013-2017 Accord generation. Megan Racing's MR-CDK-HA13 kit is sold as fitting both the 2013-2017 Honda Accord (CR2) and the 2016-2019 Acura TLX FWD, since the two share this suspension platform.
