Default tein s-tech springs question

alright, i have an 00 civic. and i am about to order the tein s-tech lowering springs. all i need to know is will these springs be a lot stiffer than stock and give me better handling and be able to take corners harder? or should i look into a stiffer spring?

They look great, handle well, but are lower than most springs. The best combo is to pair them with either an aftermarket adjustable like a kyb-agx or non-adjustable like kyb-GR2.

I noticed no difference in handling on my 97 ex with those springs. But they ride really well.

ya but you saccrifice ride. Either way dont expect much improvement. If you want improvemnt in hadndling, put a GSR or Civic Si rear sway bar on your car. You can get them for around 50. Also some shocks will improve handling greatly. For bout 270 you can get some tokico blues, which will be a nice improvemnet. For around 500 you can get Koni yellows, which are adjustable and the best out there.
