Springs sagging..anyone else?

[CRX89]

I ntoiced after a year or so..my H&R settles about a 1/2'' lower on the driver side. IS this normal for cars to sit a lil higher on one side? Im kinda thinking so as my other two civic did....but anyone else on regular style spings notice thier car a lil lower or higher on one side?

Are you noticing the uneven "sagging" while the e-brake is on? If so, there is nothing you can do! The only way to get good measurement is to drive the car for a couple miles & coast to a stop(flat surface) using the least amount of brake as possible.

i used to notice some sagging in my coilovers, sadly i bought them befor i knew anything about brands, they were apc ha ha

but since they were sleeves i just adjusted the one side, i'm not sure if there is anything u can do if they're just springs tho

All springs/coilovers will do that.
It's because all the extra weight from the transmission is on the pass. side.

ok? What about all the extra weight of the engine on the other side, plus driver. I think that weighs just a tad bit more.

Springs determine the ride height, not struts.

nevermind..i parked on a flat surface and my car sit pretty level about 1/16th of a inch off...The parking space where I thought it was sitting unleve was due to there being a slight slope..I didnt relize till today...struts are fairly new...about 10,000 miles on them...I guess I was just paranoid about ride height

that makes me feel somewhat better cause im gonna be getting some H&R springs soon, which ones you got and how much you lowered?

[CRX89]

I got the sports. They ride and handle awesome imo. Ive had skunk 2,eibach and sprints before and these are the best one ive had. They arent to stiff where my car hops over the bumps..Its soaks the bumps up yet keeps body roll down... the drop is 1.8''....I like them cause my camber isnt so off it wears tires. Get em man youll like them. I wanna get some koni "yellows" next and my suspension should be good for a daily driver..not to stiff not to low but still have good performance.

hmm, i don't know which one i should get, i want to go real low, i jus got done with air ride and now i want a spring that will get me real low but still give me a good feel, you got any pics of your drop?

I dont have any pics..but it still has a wheel gap...around 1 1/2'' in front and 1'' gap in the rear. My front could be higher the 1/2'' due to lack of ac..youd probably want the "race" springs or get sports and get the yellow konis with the adjustable collars to lower it with out geting the stiffer "race" springs
