Default Are Integra Shock Forks Bigger than EG Shock Forks?

Man this has been bothering me for a while.

When I purcahsed a set of Tokico Blues and some Eibach Sportline Springs ( These are the Blue ones that only lower your car about an inch and a 1/2 front & rear)

I had a set of 99 GSR Forks and since they were newer than my EG forks I installed them with the new Tokico Blues and my car is much Higher in the front than in the rear.

I've been asking around to see if the Integra Forks were bigger than the EG Civic Forks?
I haven't got any straight answers so I thought I run it by you guys.

I ran a search and nothing came up on this question. I already ordered some new EG forks to see if that will help.

Please let me know if anyone has had a similar problem.

alright, So since I just wasted $25 on EG Forks, Does any one seem to know why my car is Higher in the front than it is in the rear.

It still Looks close to stock in the front. When I get home from work I will post a picture.

I have a rear ST Sway bar I will install and I was thinking that might lift the rear up a little so It can match the front. I may be wrong though.

Yes they were changed

I went from OEM Issued 94 Civic Si Srings / Struts to Tokico Blue's with Eibach Sportline Springs.

I also Installed these Items at the time I install the the Spirngs/Struts
99 GSR Front Sway Bar, Lower Control Arm / Suport Arm, Aftermarket Upper Contole arm & Bushings

Eibach's are usually lower in the back then the front, from what i have read. This is why other companies like neuspeed drop the front alittle lower than the back. My race springs are 2.25front 2.00 rear.

I was trying to go for a little higher type of ride.

I had neuspeed springs and that was too low for the Lip & f&*ked up streets in MD / DC / VA.

I might just have to cut the springs a little than. I hate to have to HACK it up
