EK CTR Suspension & Spring questions...
Hello....
I have a 96 Civic HB. I saw these used EK CTR Springs & Shocks for sale for $100. Can someone help me answer these questions?
1. Any handling / performance gains from these?
2. Are they stiffer shocks and lower springs?
3. Any way of make sure that is not fake? Labels or whatnot?
4. How long does these parts generally last? For example, 100k miles total?
5. Anything else I should beware of.
Thanks in advance guys.
God bless,
Danny

Don't waste your money. They also don't bolt in, you will need different rear lower control arms. Get yourself upgraded USDM parts, its easier to replace when THOSE wear out or need service.
