Default Unhappy with my susp set up

Ok i have the progress springs on stock struts. The drop didnt quite come out to what i wanted .the rear sits well looks like it sits lower then the front. I personally dont like the rear end squating more then the front. At first i wanted to get coilovers but was talked out of it b/c i wouldnt use them to there potectial. i noticed that almost all lowering springs give a slight lower look in the rear. I want to kno what the best coilovers are for the money, quality, and reliablity. I want them to adjust the height to my liking and have a slightly stiffer ride. Can anyone give me any help. Thanks

best bang for the buck is probably buddy club IMO, but if your civic is your DD then they might be too stiff. i was thinking about these but i just think that 10k fr/14k r is too stiff.

megan racing seems to have a decent set. i looks like they had some problems with there ver. 1 but the new version seems to be fine. these are 8k fr/10k r; so they are a little bit better for DD.

i think many people dont like tien, personally i've never had a problem with them but they are $$$. edfc is also a nice feature about these.

you could also go ksport (havnt done much research on them)


im going to go with megan racing i think...im still deciding between them and bc. you could also wait for the koni setup that redshift should be releasing soon (within the next month or two)

thanks for your help i was gonna get the tein basic but i was told that they were crap and then agian i was told that they were good. idk. i also seen pics of B&G. the buddyclubs look nice and ive never seen the megan stuff. There was a kit that was stage 2 that i forgot what it was called. I just wanted somehting that i can adjust to make the height what i want and for photos lower it a lil more fo a better photo. The better handeling is just a plus for me.
