What all are you looking to replace. You should use Honda seals, they are by far the best. Can get them from any Honda dealer.

Your manual should have specs for spring length, they sag over time and will someday become too short.

If you're strapped for cash, you can always just make preload spacers to change the ride you get with the springs you've got.
