Default which springs for a del sol? POLL!

okay. i finally got my check and i want to get some springs for my del sol to lower it. BUT concidering the choices i have narrowed down to all cost relativley the same. so im gonna ask all of YOU! so heres the list as follows. and u can tell me why if u vote. and hopefully u have had actual encounters with the springs i list. and dont just vote for them based on word of mouth. anyway here we go!


PS. is $100 too much for instalation?


also. for people who HAVE del sols! i want to know how much of a drop i should get. when lookin at my car. it looks really really high. higher than most stock civics. and some dude at an import shop told me that like a 2 inch drop just put three fingers under ur bumper. and thats how low it will go... but three fingers dosent even look that low! so how low should i go????

HELP

I'd say get Neuspeeds for $125 off groupbuycenter.com. $100 sounds a bit pricey for spring installation. I payed $60 the last time I had spings installed, but that as in 1998.

What are the rates on these "Tenabi" springs?

H&R what? H&R makes several different springs.

And most importantly, what dampers are you using?

i'm currently using Progress 2.3" on my del sol right now and i think it still sits a bit high. There is still room for 2 and half fingers. its weird how Del Sols seem to sit higher than the other models. I think i would go with the H&R race on a Del Sol...

P.S.

don't even consider getting the progress springs... they are the most horrible springs ive ever owned.
