Default Gettin new springs, help with a choice.

I got a EG civic coup with tusudo coilovers and still stock struts. Got to get rid of this junk. Iv been lookin at skunk2 springs, Teins, and tanabe. I'm lookin for about 2" drop but no less cuzz it rubs the headers every know and agian around here.
Its a daily driver but I def dont want soft springs like my tusudos, which ones do you all recomend? Also lookin at tokico HP for struts, good choice?

A lot of guys will say stay away from the tokico Blues, although I had them with a mild spring (goldlines) and they were fine. If you want a decent budget setup, which will be good for daily driving, look into the tokico kit. I think its 1.5" drop, but the ride is very nice, and they work well together, taking out the guesswork. Otherwise, the tiens are great, so other the other tanabes. the skunks are good, but much more firm than the others. You might want to consider the skunk2 sport shocks, which are close to the tok blues in price, but designed to work with the skunk springs, if you go that route. Good luck. OH, and if you descide to go with the tanabes, I think its the grip feel you'd be after. The normal feel is a softer more mild spring.
