Default My civic spring dilema, please help

I have a 97 civic 4 door. Currently on tein s techs and stock shocks. Im set on getting tokico illuminas, but want to change my springs too. I want the springs to have a more aggressive spring rate, and want them to lower my car as much or a little more then the s techs. I dont want anything that will cause me to rub without rolled fenders. Any input?

I'll second the H&R Sport suggestion.

That's more a function of your wheel width/offset and tire size, not necessarily ride height or roll stiffness.

Good call.
