Default Springs to go with KYB AGX struts

Any reccomendations? I was either think H&R sports or Tein Htechs. Well?

My car: KYB AGX shocks in-conjunction with Sprint Springs. They handle great. I've had them for two years now, and still feel like new. My every day settings are 2 up front and 5-6 in back. I know a guy who runs auto-x and he tested every number and came up with 2 and 7 for his most comfortable auto-x setting. I've yet to try this so don't take my word for it. However, 2 and 6 on the street is very responsive.

i have h&r race springs on mine, good ride and great handling. sports would probably be similar not as low of a drop and probably smoother ride

im running comptech sport springs. solid, but not for true autox. great for mainly street. drops about 1.5 inches. im running 2/4, and other than the rough bumps on the freeway (yes i do try to avoid them, but some are inevitable), they make my turns feel much more solid.

Get Omni power springs coilovers for around $160 or something. And give us a review on them they sound good from people that just got them. Might get some myself. Right now I got H&Rs and KYB AGX.

You said you had lowering springs on your ride?

did you forget to put the back ones on or something?
That just doesn't look right to me

I've got AGX's (painted orange because i bought them used from a friend and had to clean up the rust) and imitation skunk2 coilovers from importboi22 here on honda-tech. They were a great deal $145 shipped and they ride exactly like my friends car on AGX's and real skunk2's.

AWESOME RIDE!!!! set at 3,4

Its called the front springs drop the car more then the back. In the front there is like a 1 finger gap, in theb ack there is a two. On the other side of the car not pictured is where the problem lies, But I'm thinking of lowering the back a little more since I haven't had problems with the exhaust hitting.

i used to run neuspeed sports (identical drop with the h&r sports) with my AGX's. it rode really nice. i left the setting 2F and 4R.

and now i'm running gc's with my AGX's and set them 3F 5R.

no complaints here

I have Agx's with Neuspeed race springs and I love the combination. My settings are f4 and r6 with my b16. With my d16 my settings were f2 r5.
