Default h&r spring help

ok i've decided to buy some h&r lowering springs for my 88 crx si...but im low on cash...and i think im going to use the factory shocks for a while...how long do you guys think i can last like this without completly blowing the shocks? ive had freinds use factory shocks before with the eibach pro kit..and it worked out fine for them...think it wil work ok with h&r's too? i mean the drop isnt that much...like 1.7in or something...any input would be appreciated..thanks

I had the H&R race springs on my old 90 civic si, they were fine, they ride really soft and I even had 17s. Don't worry about it, they are great springs

What's that say in your sig? Something about "I want my car lower"? But you said you your H&R's!? So what's the real story here pal?

Just kidding...but I do have a real question...anyone with the H&R's notice a slightly uneven drop on their car? I have the Neuspeed sports on Bilsteins and the drop is kind of uneven.

TIA-

Alex

Yeah, it pretty much sits higher on the whole passenger side. Nice and low on the driver's side though. That's why I was asking about the H&R's since they used to be made by the same company.

I'm probably going to go with Ground Controls soon so I can get it just where I want it, in the front and back, driver's and passenger's side.
