well these springs are to bumpy but its not stiff its just a shitty ride with no handling. i would like something lower than a 1.75 inch drop and to handle good a i have these springs illuminas and a upper sway bar and 16x7 inch rims and it still doesnt handle worth a ****

try eibach pro kits. i liked em on my crx with tokico illuminas. its a popular combo and most ppl like it too. the drop was just right in my opinion.

i believe you have an upper STRUT bar, not sway bar. totally different.

what car? how old?

I have eibach pro kit on my illuminas. perfect IMO for my daily driver and occasional canyon runs.
