Hello.
I need new suspenion.
I want coilovers. I've been lookin at Skunk2 Pro S, D2 and Tein.
I want something that will lower my civic and wont be bouncy with a dec. ride.
Anyone have any opinions on these?
Thank you!

None of those. They're either crap, overpriced, or both.

Go with Koni + GC, you can't go wrong with that setup

Me:

Which d2's and f&f's? I might check into buying those.

I think they(PICs) are more harsh than either setup i have had. def more bouncy and not any better at taking turns.

any experience with omni street setup?

Re: The OFFICIAL DC Squad --Version 3--

So D2's or F&F Type 1's would be good for a daily?

No, I think your trans and maybe $200 on top would be more fair.

id stay away from 1 piece suspension for a daily driver

imo they are a bit stiff for the streets unless where you live is perfectly smooth roads everywhere

agx or koni yellows with gc is perfect for daily and occasional track use imo from everything ive road in or driven (omni, tein, f&f)

I can't decide, low offset in a 15x8 or be normal and buy some 16x7 rpf's or kosei's.

Deer ran into my fender then bounced off.... claimed the driver mirror too. Bad thing is that the same exact thing happened to my 99 dc4 about 2 years ago... and it was just the fender..
