What springs would you recommend??
I have a 97 civic ex coupe first of all...
Anyways, I want a 2" drop all around, so I dont have to get a camber kit, and I want a decent ride, but I want good handling, I just dont want my fillings shaking out everytime i go over some railroad tracks.
What springs would you recommend, and if you have a pic of the drop they give, please post it.
Thanks!!

i would go for some h and r race springs or some neuspeed race springs. both give around 2-2.5 drop, a little on the stiff side though.

I will be getting KYB AGX shocks.
About how much will a camber kit cost, and why couldnt a good alignment take care of that.
I am still kinda new to the game, so I dont know a lot about suspension stuff.

H&R Sport Springs
1.75" drop in the front 1.5" in the back, and you will still need a camber kit if you want your tires to wear properly.
Check out this info on spring rates too......

I had a 2" drop and it only had 1 deg. of camber all the way around. I now have a 3" drop and have no problem with camber wear on my tires.

Correction, its 1.75 front and 1.50 back. Rear washer mod in the back and a good alignment, and no camber kit is needed. But each car is different.
