Default RSX Type S Skunk 2 or Tein S-Tech

i was wondering which springs would be better on the car? I want like a nice drop with a small gap. If you have pictures of you car with any of these springs please post them thank you.

i got skunk2 springs on my '02 rsx-s and it rides pretty good until about a couple hundred miles. then it starts getting alil bouncy. the rear on my car also sits alittle bit lower then the front. i would recommend gettin shocks or the full suspension rather then just gettin springs.

true.. i just put on some tein s tech and not quite satisfy with the drop. especially when the rear is lowing than the front. its terrible, i don't even want to drive around near girls. if i were you, go for full suspension.

sucks for you. i just installed s techs on my car, nice drop not anything major. my front actually sits a little lower in the front. i recommend getting some neuspeed race springs. 2.25 drop. but i wouldnt get that unless ur getting new shocks. get DAMPERs FTMFW!

i like teins products but thats one of the reason why i didn't purchase their sping set for the rsx

i'm sure that it handles better with the front slightly higher but i'll sacrafice it for the even look
eibachs ftw

i have the skunk2 springs and they suck . The ride is too bouncy and i have negative camber. Just go coilovers . skunk2 is good for engine parts but sucks for suspension.

Look at the FAQ and do a search. We've been over this topic a ton of times in the past 6 months. I don't feel like retyping myself.
