Default Springs ....

In your humble opinion, what would be the best springs for good looking drop and best performance for:

94 civic coupe.
195/50/15 GSR's.

matters how you want it and how low YOU WANT IT. do research first, eibach, nuespeed, h&r, etc. those are good brands. also look into ground control & skunk2. Tein, Apexi, Koni Coilovers. for the springs, get good shocks please

oh yeah im on H&R sports (1.75f/1.5r) w/ kyb agxs and the drop is perfect IMO and feels great, handles great.....

it all depends why your lowering it? for looks, auto-x, drag, etc.

I have the sportlines with stock shock and it works great. It dropped it about 1.8 inches stock. Then did a motor swap and it dropped another 1/2inch to a inch.

In your humble opinion, what would be the best springs for good looking drop and best performance for:

94 civic coupe.
195/50/15 GSR's.
Koni coilover system. Comes with Koni yellows with adjustable spring perches, and progressive wound springs (look like Eibach's to me, but I can't say for sure).

Downside - pricey. I love mine, but this level of performance could be had for cheaper, I guess.
