91Teg/99EX

I found a good deal for a set of Ground Controls off a 2000 SI along with tokiko illuminas. However my car is a 1999 Civic EX and I know that the spring rates are different but I was wondering what effects would it have on my car if I were to install the GC and the shocks made for an SI. The thing im worried about is my car being bouncy as a mofo so can anyone help me out here?

Thanks yall

As far as I know it shouldn't feel any different than it would on an Si since it would be both the shocks AND springs from it. Actually it should be a slightly softer ride since (I'm assuming) your car lacks one thing that the Si has, a rear swaybar. Swaybars depending on how thick, will make that end of the car stiffer than it normally is over bumps and such.
