Springs tend to have lower spring rates than coilovers, meaning more roll in the corners. But, with higher spring rates...if you slam your car on stock shocks you're gonna bounce around like anna nicole smith riding a horse. I have 450/350 cheap coilovers, and I only lowered my car like 2"...and its been fine for a year My friend had neuspeed race springs and tokico blues, and the handling wasnt that great at all...same thing with eibach sportlines.

HEY NEWB!

please do a search....
once a week someone posts this exact topic just worded differently or for a diff. model.

You'd be surprised how much more info you can get by searching for several topics and archives about springs/coils than starting a new post. trust me...

okay...I was nice and tried a few searches

https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch

I found 72 archived topics when I inputed "92 hatch springs"

you can try other words too.... I am sure you can find lots of stuff.
I know starting your own, new post is alot more fun than searching, but ...
