TEIN VSHD7-X1EA2 EnduraPro Basic Rear Shocks for 13-17 Honda Accord

Vehicle Fitment

• 2013-2017 Honda Accord (CR2/CT1/CT2, sedan)

Fitment Notes

• Rear pair - this is a set of 2 rear shocks, not a front kit and not a single-shock listing
• This is the EnduraPro Basic tier specifically - Tein also offers standard EnduraPro (VSHD7-A1MS2, sold per single shock) and EnduraPro Plus (VSHD7-B1MS2, adjustable damping, also sold per single shock) rear shocks for this same Accord application. Confirm which tier you want before ordering, since the "Basic" designation, quantity (pair vs. single), and price point differ meaningfully between these otherwise similarly-named parts
• A front-position Basic kit also exists for this generation Accord (VSHD6-X1EA2) if a complete front-and-rear Basic tier replacement is the goal

Features

• OE-shape design uses the vehicle's original spring and upper mount - no ride height change from installation
• Designed to replace worn or leaking OE dampers while improving ride quality and handling
• Compatible with Tein lowering springs (referred to as "low down springs" in some listings) for a more aggressive setup if desired down the line
• Sealed structure production method combines high quality construction with reduced manufacturing cost, passed on as savings versus Tein's higher-tier EnduraPro lines
• Manufactured and assembled at Tein's factory in Yokohama, Japan

Specifications

• Series: EnduraPro Basic
• Position: Rear (sold as a pair)
• Damping Adjustment: None (fixed damping, non-adjustable - this is the entry tier below standard EnduraPro and EnduraPro Plus)
• Compatible Springs: OEM or Tein lowering springs

Included Components

• 2x Rear Shock Absorbers (EnduraPro Basic, OE-shape)

Product Description

When a factory Accord's rear dampers wear out or start leaking, replacing them is often more of a maintenance decision than a performance upgrade - which is exactly where Tein's EnduraPro Basic line is positioned. Built to the same OE shape as the factory damper for a straightforward swap using the existing rear springs and mounts, this kit restores ride quality and handling to spec without the added cost of adjustable damping most owners in a pure replacement scenario don't need.

Tein's sealed-structure production method - narrowing the shell pipe, injecting oil and gas, then crimping the unit sealed - shortens manufacturing time and keeps the Basic tier priced below standard EnduraPro and EnduraPro Plus, while still delivering genuine OE-fitment quality. It remains compatible with Tein lowering springs, so it's not a dead end if a lower stance gets added to the car later.

This kit suits Accord owners replacing worn or leaking rear dampers who want a straightforward, cost-effective restoration rather than adjustable performance damping. If damping adjustability matters for your build, step up to the standard EnduraPro or EnduraPro Plus rear shock for this same chassis instead - both exist under closely related part numbers, so it's worth double-checking you're ordering the tier (and quantity) you actually want.
