What springs for koni yellows ('93 civic ferio)
Hi people!
I have just installed some yellow koni shocks...
I used my cheap-*** springs I had allready...now I also have a set of integra-stock springs laying around here, so now I wonder, how good they'll perfrom with my koni shocks?!!? Are they comparable to "normal", medium quality lowering springs (like Vogtland or something), or are they bad for my koni shocks?
I'm not very happy with the cheap-*** springs I have now, they're quite low, but it doesn't feel that nice to ride...so, what do you think guys? Use the integra springs?
Thanks for your opinions!!

save for just a little while and get some ground controls, pro-kits or a higher quality spring. It'll be worth it in the end.

'ya mean "pro-kit" = Eibach, right??
Yeah, that's what I want to get...but I have no money at the moment...
so, the integra-springs would be just temp. installed, but I just wanted to know, if they're better than those cheap-*** lowering springs...

what kind of car do you have.. it your total weight and balance is similar to the integras you'll probably be cool with those for a while.

I have 1993 Civic ferio, with D16Z6 engine...I know that e.g. the front shocks are the same for Integra and Civic...so, 'ya think I can go with them? I think I'll just give them a try...they can't be worse than the cheap-*** springs I have now...
And what springs should I get when I have some money??I think Eibach or H&R are fine, right?

I had koni yellows + eibach pro-kits and I was really dissappointed with the ride. Felt every bump in the road but it wasn't stiff enough when I needed it. I now have koni yellows + h&R sports and it is a much better combo. Smmoth enough for regular driving and much stiffer in the turns. IMO H&R sports are a better spring than the pro-kits.
