check out carreview.com and click on reviews, then suspension, then springs.

if you go with H&R springs, i got it from Tirerack.com for 170 total with shipping and no tax, only takes 2 dayz.

Re: lowering springs

I have H&R lowering springs, they took my car down about an 1.5in...but then again I have a civic SiR so you may get a lower drop because of increased weight

I got the H&R OE .75 drop because I wanted a sleeper look. Their sport springs drop 1.5 to 1.75, you'll have to check I'm really not sure.

Many people have Eibach, but from carreview.com seems like you need to have good shocks for good ride quality.

I purchased SKUNK2 springs and I like them alot. Cost me about $145.00 at a local shop. I checked on ebay and they were about the same price after shipping. They dropped me a little over 1.9" and on a teg thats low.

Re: lowering springs

Pretty much anything below 1.5" you'd need a camber kit if you don't want to go through tires in a hurry.
