Hi I was wondering if the Blox Competition Series Lowering Springs any good? Im planning on getting it for my 00 civic ex and I really want to lower it. Does anybody have any pics of how much of a drop they get with these springs? Another question I had was are lowering springs more a comfortable ride than coilovers? Heres the link

get blox adjustable coilovers and then you can adjust where you want it and there a really good set up too

I haven't had good luck with blox products. I haven't used the springs though, springs are pretty simple so they should be fine. They don't tell you the spring rates, which could give you some clue into the ride quality. 2.5 inches or so should be a nice drop for a DD unless you're trying to really slam it. Personally, I like my car to be drivable.

I have heard they are 8k springs... my friend has them and says kinda stiff. but not bad at all.

I know someone that had these springs, rode stiff but had a great improvment over stock. I was also told 8k front and rear.

kevinm1981

kinda stiff like neuspeed race?

98civdx

Honestly they felt stiff then neuspeed race springs.
That is just my opinon though.

kevinm1981

damn maybe i should stick to koni/gc.

98civdx

I would much rather have koni/gc over blox springs.

going to part out my car.. I want a RSX type S. Guess i will put on the blox springs with oem shocks and sell it.

98civdx

ahh, ya i would do the same. I love my GF's 06 type s

kevinm1981

OMG, they feel so good....

98civdx

Yep, i told her im steeling it.
Owns my civic in everyway but cornering.

Why not just get some more reputable lowering springs like SKUNK2? They are about 140 shipped on ebay.

skunk2 springs, scratch that all skunk2 suspension sucks *****.

98civdx

Compared to blox im not sure who is better. But they're just lowering springs.

I have skunk2 coilovers and im content.

mortificationrock

Ive had skunk2 suspension and ive never heard or had any problems with them. Maybe a bad install?

Plus BLOX is made by SKUNK2 ive heard. Its just the cheaper version of them. So if you hate on skunk2 which is better. Why would you opt to buy the cheaper version of them? Just my .02
