Default Should I keep my Neuspeed Race???

I want a low drop, I know these are a 2.25" drop but I don't know if that will be low enough. I've searched and still cant find a pic of a hatch with these springs in. Any pic would be appreciated. It's either these or coilovers.

2.25 is pretty low. I don't see why you would want to go any lower

it probably depend where you live... out here in cali we like our cars DUMPED.. but in order to be dumped...you have to do it right.. meaning not just springs alone. go with a good set up and all you have to do is buy it once. go cheap or piece by piece and you will pay for it with your bottom..(tush).. go with tien or apex.. havent tried zex or tokico's new system but they should be alright for the price.
now if $$ is the isssue agx are decent for the price and are ajustable and those sprints x1000 are like 3" drop but are a soft ride...

these are some old pictured of my crx dropped on Neuspeed race springs (yellows). The bling-bling rims were 16's with 205/50's. As you can see, there's like a finger and a half of gap between the well and the tire. Now that i got the stock 14's back on and it sits lower but still has a little gap.

If you want to get some Race springs get the H&R Race springs same drop as the Neuspeed but after awhile they wont sag like the Neuspeeds would...

Don't be gay McDick, stick with the nuespeed race's, you just spent a wack of money on them, and now you want to lose money? You had coilovers before, screw em, and stick with the race springs.

I have neuspeed race, they are low as FACK! I dont think it would be practical to go lower, i scrape over speed bumps now, and with a passenger it is horrible, some speed bumps scrape the **** out of the bottom of the car.

i have neuspeed race springs and i cut off about 4 in the front and 3 in the back. my car sits pretty low and it still rides pretty good .. neuspeeds are good springs to cuz there i so many dead coils.

i have neuspeed race on my crx and like them very much... i actually didn't think they would be as low as they are but i love it... i'm running them with koni yellows and 13" steelies with 185/60/13's... i set the springs on the highest perch on the front and the lowest perch on the back so the car sits at less of an angle... the front is tucked just a teeny bit and the back is flush with the fender ... it looks and performs great... just watch out for dips, speed bumps, railroad tracks, etc or you will regret it ... and if you already have them, then keep them

I got them on my CRX, i love them BUT, while you're ordering the RX Extremes... GET A CAMBER KIT! one that adjust to at least 3 degrees, it REALLY messes up your camber. Also, they dont bounce since they are progressive and have a soft spring rate, so if you plan on auto crossing...youll need adjustable shocks. Ive had them on my car for about 5 months now and my shocks are gunna blow pretty soon, im just looking for a job to finally have the money to get some good shocks and a camber kit. Heres a side pic of my car with them on (excuse the hair, i just woke up right b 4 that pic )

I have them on my golf and i love them gives a really nice drop the only thing is that if you dont have aftermarket shocks they can be really bouncy but its kinda nice if you have a girl with big kahunas next to you.

Holy moly..i dunno man, eibachs are pretty high quality...alot of top racers use them, also they are used in ground control kits but as far as H&r's go, i have them on my hatchback and theyre dope! Won some autox's with them. If you wanna see the drop, check out my site in my sig.."Tuning Special"....go into garage and click on joey F. (youll see my head)
