Are Civic Si stock springs lower/better than others?

I'm thinking of lowering my car. If I get the 00 Si stock springs, are they any lower than 00 LX stock springs? Are they a better ride? I know H&R makes the "OE Sport Spring" that lowers .75" in front and rear. I assume they call them OE because they're used as stock in cars. Can anyone clarify ay of this?

Well supposedly they sat .5" lower - not very noticeable. But they are supposed to be stiffer than the EX/DX springs.

i would say stiffer because the si sports a b-series as opposed to a d.
and the si is ment to be driven harder

stiffer, I had them out of a dx and a si at the same time in the garage, the same length but the Si springs were much thicker therefore stiffer
