Default Ground Control sleeves for a 92-00 Civic on 94-01 Integra?

I found some GC coilovers for a 92-00 Civic at a good price, p/n 200.64.58 front and 180.64.44 rear. I have KYB AGX shocks, and I was wondering how the ride will be with these coilovers? I'm not going to slam my car, probably just drop it 1.5" and use only for DD/occasional spirited driving. I know the spring rates for the Civic front (325) are lower than those of the Integra (380), but the rear are the same. I was wondering how big of a difference this will make? Is this a sacrifice at all? Should I just skip the cheap Civic GC's and save for GC's specifically for the Integra? Thanks

Ride might be a little softer, but it should be fine.

Am I looking at any sacrifices by going with the Civic springs? It'll still be stiffer than stock, correct?

you should be fine bro, aslong as you dont slam your ride you should be okay. No matter what springs you with the ride quality will be a stiffer than stock.

You probably wouldn't even notice the difference.

For your intended ride height, you'll be fine.

make sure to get a alignment done after you install the your suspension setup.
