They do go pretty low. I have pics of my neighbors car slammed all the way before he raised it. I would say it was about a 3-3.5 in drop, maybe even lower. It was so low that when you turn the front wheels the car gets lifted b/c of the tires. He has a eh3 with 14 in hx rims.
If you just wanna slam your car get skunk2's or something. I had those and they were just about his height, maybe an 1/8 in lower.

Re: (AzntaggeR)
you guys who are running the integera rates, did you order the civic kit with the integra springs, or did you just order the complete integra kit since it's the same.?
I'm ordering mine soon and was curious which to order...Thanks

he wants his car "slammed" he never said anything about performance, and the integ spring rates will make the car higher if anything

why do you not want a sleeve kit anymore?are you using aftermarket shocks too?use some AGXs with your GCs and i bet you'll be happy.there's no reason the Teins will necesarily ride better than a proper sleeve/shock setup.besides,as far as i'm concerned,a good sleeve kit and adjustable shocks are all 99% of the population needs anyway....most people get Tein for bling than anything else.

Re: TEin Super streets (daklown)
I kinda didnt feel the need to ask about performance cause they are..well...obviously capable.
oh yes. thank you for the wonderful advice onthe APC springs. Sorry i havent memorized mm conversions and ****. My bad.
im not a ******* ricer. In fact, i bought the car with a body kit, 17's, and clear corners, groundcontrols with stock struts and home made sleeves...hence why im not keeping them. Also came with tezzas and a 220,000 mile old D series motor and hood LEDs.
I apologize for removing the rice entirely and swapping the D for a B and the 17's for Rotas and wanting to fix my broken coilovers that broke from previous owners ignorance. I guess all the APC **** they had on there originally really was high performance. After all, those Clear corners made the D faster than my B with ambers. i bet those APC springs would add 385025 whp.
But hte rest of you were helpful. Thanks
