Spring/Strut combo. (opinions needed)
I am getting ready to drop my car and put some struts on it. I am looking at Suspension Tech lowering springs that lower it 1.80" all around. I am wonering if these are any good. If not then Eibach 1.7-1.6 would be better?
And I am looking at buying some color of Koni shock for them. I dont want to go below 2" because of camber reasons. Basically what I am asking for is what everyone else has found to be good and worth the money. I dont want coilovers because the sleeves on them would only make it one winter here. |

Re: Spring/Strut combo. (opinions needed)
I would stay away from ST springs, they have decent sway bars. I would recommend the Eibach Pro-kit, H&R sport, or Neuspeed sports. All Koni shocks are good, I prefer adjustables.
Since you have neither shocks or springs, check out some matched packages like H&R's cup kit or other quality set-ups. There is a reason why ST springs are cheap & Eibach is expensive, actually many - quality, R&D, type of material, etc. You will be much happier if you spend the extra money. |

Sorry, but I have no knowledge about those that you are talking about. I am using Intrax 1.75 drop springs (I bought for $50 used) and KYB AGX struts. I like them.

diffently dont buy cheap springs. i have maxspeed coilovers on my 6g and my friend has eibach on his. his springs are almost double the size of mine. we have the same struts and his car handles 10 times better than mine.

Re: Spring/Strut combo. (opinions needed)
if you're looking for a mild drop to get rid of the gap i suggest H&R OE springs and Koni yellows. Just lower the perch on the Konis all the way down and you'll have a nice drop that rides really smooth

My Eibach Pro-kit & KYB AGX's are sweet - no complaints. Sportlines are OK, most likely you will need a camber kit.

Re: Re: Re: Spring/Strut combo. (opinions needed)
I used the Eibach pro-kits, KYB AGX 's on my infiniti, and loved it. My civic now has H&R Stage 3 spring, and KYB AGX's and again, I love that combo too.
