Good question, Bilstein shocks are made for a large portion of automotive vehicles on the road today. Their shocks can vary from normal factory replacement to high-performance application.
This is more a personal preference. It all depends on our wallet and how deep you want to spend.
Hope this helps.

Ran bilstein/ground controls on my 92CX back in the early 2000's and it was an awesome setup. Made a road trip from Indiana to Colorado and Colorado to Vegas with it

Germans make the best suspensions. Japan's are crap. Even American suspension companies are better than Japanese.
Koni is better than Bilstein.

Does anyone know where I can buy bilsteins for my EG hatch. And can I use them with lowering springs?
Or does anyone have the part numbers for the shocks??

I second the quality of Billsteins. I've never owned them, but I have some BMW friends who were more than happy with them. If they're high enough quality for a BMW, they're great for a Honda.
As for part numbers, you may want to check out their site and contact them if you're having trouble finding out which part # to order. Better to ask them than to end up with a part that isn't properly valved for your car.
