2.5" is too low for a Civic. You lose WAY too much suspension travel & need some really good shocks to handle that drop. H&R Race are roughly the same but slightly higher (if I remember correctly)

I disagree I have neuspeed race w/ stock shocks and I like the drop a lot.. I dont find them bouncy but you do feel the hard bumps in the road. I had H&R sports before and loved the ride but not the drop.. my neuspeed springs part number is specifically for 96 civics but I put them on my 92..

i had these springs on my civic and the ride was really stiff but i didn't think it was too bouncy. my only disappointment is that i didn't think it lowered my car enough--i had a 1 1/2 finger gap with 16's on, but i did have really thin tires. but yeah i think they are decent springs. now i'm riding on sprint extremes on my ride 3.25" drop.

I have them, with kyb agx shocks, really stiff ride. With 205-50-15, there no wheels gab, but no tuck neither. I find perfect for my use at the moment. I will get coilovers eventually, but right now, I'm still a student, on a limited budget.

Well damn...thanks for all the imput guys...I did'nt really want coilovers because I dont plan on changing heights (sees VERY little track time), but also am not interested in a bouncy ride...I guess I need to fine some progressive rate springs. What would you guys recommend for a daily driver/ weekend track car that sees a lot of miles every week and has to go over some pretty shitty roads?

most people that complain 'x' brand of spring is bouncy is usually the same people on OEM shocks.
