Default What Springs?

Hi guys,

I Got Tokico Illuminas with H&R Sport Springs on my 98 Hinda Civic Hatch and im sitting pretty high, i want to go lower if i get the H&R Race Spring would it go lower?

is there any other spring that goes lower and stiffer besides that i was looking at:

H&R Race Spring
Neuspeed Race Spring yellow
Skunk 2 Lowering Springs

dont know i have 195/55/15 gsr blades and i want to at least lil bit of a tucked tire or less wheel gap.. but ima switch to a 195/50/15 soon so what are ur suggestions i dont really care about comfort but i want low and preformance out of it.. for cornering cuz i canyon race...


T.I.A

i got a set of r*sr springs on my ej...its practically slammed on stock struts. and go to the suspension forum and there is about 58 pages of suspension setups.



oh and btw they ride good. kinda bouncy cuz my struts are shot...but that will change soon.

Tokico Reds on KYB struts.

I love it to death.

Though that may be too high for you're liking - it gave me like a 2.25-3" drop.
