raising my car back up...

i bought a 96 accord coupe a few months ago and it was already lowered. it's about 3 to 2.5 inches from the ground. I keep scraping the bottom over bumps and driveways so i want to raise it back up...but not back to stock height, just an inch or two higher than it is.

i have tokico shocks and the springs on them i don't know the brand but they are blue. can anyone reccommend me a good set of adjustable springs or adjustable coilovers. and is there a difference between the two? also when they say it gives you a 1.5 drop or whatever, are they talking about that drop from the stock height or is that they height from the ground? thanks to anyone who can help out.

When they say 1.5" drop, it's from stock height usually. I wouldn't recommend any adjustable sprints (or sleeve coilovers) but if you absolutely must, I've heard that Skunk2 and Ground Control are okay.

I'd get some H&R OEM springs, because they bring you up almost to stock, but are about .75"-1" lower, so you still have a semi-aggressive stance but aren't scraping everywhere.
