Default intrax springs and H&Rs...questions

so im in the market for a new stance...but i dont have much to spend. and i was wondering if anyone had experience with intrax or H&Rs on their integra? pics would be GREEAT! i have a db8, i dunno if that makes any difference..

im really looking for a nice drop with no wheel gap or even a little bit of tucked tires but i dont want it to be a shitty ride either.

my current set up is koni yellows with neuspeed springs (the green one) and i have about a finger and a half wheel gap...dont like it at all!..so any input would help! thanks in advance!

PLEASE DONT POST SAYING get ground controls...ive thought about it. and the bottom line is...im on a budget

The lower you go, the stiffer the springs have to be to keep the car from smashing the bumpstops at every dip in the road. You can get good springs for fairly cheap, but the shocks have to be quality if you want a good ride.

If you want it low and affordable and not lose too much comfort, use some H&R race springs ($160) with a quality adjustable shock, like some Koni's ($500), that should hook you up. This is a proven combination with many racers also. The shocks are adjustable for ride comfort on the streets and use a stiffer setting for track days, and the perches are adjustable so you can lower your ride even more if you want.

You will also need a camber kit to help with the alignment so you don't eat your tires up every other week.

Edit: Just saw you have the Koni's already, then yes, go for some H&R race springs.
