Anyone know if an eibach pro kit will do for my 2003 honda civic Si-G (same as ex)?
I just want to lower my car with better handling while getting rid of my tire well. I am putting 17" rims with performance tires. Is it a necessity that I get shocks, alignment kits and and anti roll kit?

Eibach Pro-Kit is a nice set of springs.
Yes you shouldreplace the shocks/struts when lowering.
If your looking to get the most out of your suspension(handling) then a rear sway bar upgrade should be done. The stock front bar will do with poly bushings & end links. My car has way too much understeer with a larger sway bar in the front so I use the stocker with bushings. Front-wheel drive cars benefit from a rear sway bar while RWD benefits from a front sway bar. IMO a rear lower tie bar should be used with a rear sway upgrade.
You shouldn't need a camber kit unless you go under 2" drop or plan on racing.

It will be well worth the extra money. Theres nothing worse than a shitty riding modified suspension(lowered). Adjustable shocks are worth the extra money, even for street only use IMO.
