I have these on my Del Sol, but its not lowered that much because I have it setup to clear slicks. Over all I really like this suspension. Its pretty crazy stiff on the streets.

op why would you get a drag specific coilover setup, just to dump your car on the ground?

according to this page https://honda-tech.com/forums/wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-48/blox-drag-series-coilovers-limited-supply-eg-ek-dc-free-shipping-2675451/
they have 12k front and 18k rear springs, and the shocks are non adjustable so they are valved for those high spring rates and not to be dumped, there meant to sit higher for clearance and proper weight distribution


18k rear springs are goin to ride stiff and ruff on the street
and if you dump them i can almost guarantee your going to blow those cheap shocks fast

all you list are rates, not spring size, 1st and 2nd ones are more of DD/track spring rate, while the last one like it states are drag/strip rates, as you can see by the 18k rear no squatting what so ever. This wont help you in anyway lowering your car, you need to do more hw.

Oh man those drag ones would just be retarded on the street at those spring rates LMAO. Even there street setup seems pretty stiff at those rates. Considering Ground control is 380F and 250R Off the shelf.
