i have H&R fronts on my car and am really happy with the drop. its a real aggressive look and i dont have to worry too much about hills and slopes that much.

All my Honda's have had H&R. I prefer 'Sport' though for a build. Or the 'OE Sport' for my daily driver. I don't like to drop under 1.5" for some reason. I first dropped my CRX with the 'Race' springs, but swapped them with 'Sport' less than a week later.

Okay so your Eibach ProKit springs offer a 1.2 inch drop in the rear, These springs that i am looking at would give me a 1.5 inch, not too much of a difference, you think this would be okay?

I use to run h&r race springs but I will be honest with you I had to change them because the car was just too low... I could not go over a speed bump and clear without scrapping. Then I went boosted and the 3"dp I run hang a fraction of an inch lower than the stock header that use to drag... so I had to change.

Oh and I was on a stock 15" wheel which did not help, with some larger wheels it would actually have been a great drop height.

Anyways I switched to eibach sportlines and the tad bit less drop made a big difference... I can actually go over a small speedbump without a problem now.

just my 2 cents... and take into account I live in missouri... our roads suck.
