Default springs and shocks for civic

hey i was wondering what kind of springs and shocks would be good for my 97 civic coupe. i dont want the car to be too low, maybe no lower than 1.8. prices under $400 for the set. and how low can the car be without camber kits? thanks

Get Tein S-Tech springs and you won't need shocks or camber kits. Shouldn't be more than $150 shipped from eBay and it'll lower you about 1.75 all around

The S-Techs are designed to work with mostly stock components. If you want to get some borderline decent shocks, look into KYB GR2's or Tokico Blues. You don't need a camber kit, but you will need an alignment.
