Default Lowering my car

I just bought KYB AGX shocks for my 4th gen prelude. I am wondering if I should get coilovers or springs...and if either, what kind to get. I like the idea of beign able to change the height of my car. How low would look best? How low would handle best. Remember, the struts will be the KYB AGX adjustables...Thanks.

I had the exact same problem as you did. I have a 4 gen lude and bought kyb-agx and went w/ those cheap coilovers... not cool. I had to get a seccond set sent to me because the first was the wrong set. Well, the 2nd was as well. I ended up take out the collars up front and leaving them in in the back. Now my car is about 2.5" off the ground at the lowest part. Back to your question, I'd go w/ good quality coilovers, but don't forget that springs are less complicated, so they have less of a chance of breaking. If you go w/ springs make sure it's going to be a big enough drop for you. Let me know if you need any help w/ install, I have done it like 5 times now... good luck
