The Adjustable KYB version is The Agx, The Gr2s are the Agx Set on 3...

And as for the height of the drop, it all depends on how you adjust the coilovers

park your car on a flat level surface, have both coil over adjusters all the way down, and turn one side as many turns,

Then turn the other side as many turns as the other,

As long as your struts are set on a stiff setting, you shouldnt have any problems with it hitting,

My 90 accord hit only like huge bumps

W.T.F?

1)eibach sportline is not a coilover

2) the right way to measure the ride hieght is to take the measurement from the center of the center cap to the fender. eyeball it after you done, if you need exact distribution, get it on a scale and corner weight it.

3)the stiffest of the strut have nothing to do with it, it only control the "bounce back" cycle.(more on this on the basic guide) it's the spring rate that determine how much the spring will compress at a given amount of force.

and to the OP

go to eibach's website for spec on spring
