I want a nice ride as well as a low one. Are these springs going to really F*** up my ride quality? How low do they make the car sit? I don't want to scrape along the ground for looks, but more for handling at the track this summer. Please help. Thanks.

 

go tein full coil over with the pillowball

 

My friend had Sportlines on his 00 Civic SI and his car looked really really damn good, and it rode like a dream (had them for about 2 years). I'm sure the quality would be the same for Preludes. Oh and his car was dropped REALLY low with those springs--looked very clean and aggressive.

I don't know - my car is pretty low on just pro-kits. I couldn't imagine going any lower b/c I scrape a lot but I do have a kit as well. When I was researching springs, a lot of people said "do it right the first time and get coilovers because you will end up wanting them in the future." I decided to save a hundred dollars or so and go with the pro-kit and now I know what they are talking about. You just end up changing stuff on your car and need to adjust the ride height. For example, I just got a 3" downpipe that hangs pretty far down and now I am afraid of destroying it when I am this low. So what I am saying is think about just getting ground controls - then you won't have to worry if they are going to be too low or not low enough. Just make sure you are absolutely postive that you will never wish you could change your drop if you decide to go with springs.

Don't get springs. I have stock suspension and a shogun bodykit with nitto 555r's and it's too low..Scrapes way too much. I am getting some ground control sleeves with agx shocks..It's worth it to get adjustable....

 

I've got the sportlines. It drops it pretty low, you'll need a camber kit at least for the rear wheels probably.
