Default Anybody have KYB AGX shocks and H&R sport springs on 92-95 hatch

Anybody have KYB AGX shocks and H&R sport springs on 92-95 hatch? im looking to get this setup from a local member.

Just wondering if anyone here has this particular setup and how they like it?

I would also like to see some pics of this setup! I want to know if its too low to drive in the winter.

Thanks in advance!!

I have that combo, the drop is perfect and the ride is really good but the springs could be a little stiffer. Ill post up pics when i get a chance

IMO, Sport doesn't drop it enough. H&R Race springs however give it the perfect drop. Of course this is just opinion. H&R is quality either way though.

My buddy has this setup I think in his Civic Coupe. Looks real clean, and it feels great when I rode in his car.

thanks for all the responses guys!

i found this whole setup for $550 CAD used for a couple of months with reciept.

I agree H&R is a quality spring! i have their coilovers on my 00SIR.

I have had the RACE springs before the coils and that is a low drop! I think it would be ok on the Sports considering this is my winter car!! :D

Again, would love to see some pics !

Thanks

hey guys i want this setup on my del sol and i got some questions. First question. tirerack has 2 types of sport springs. the O.E. sport springs which drop your car half an inch in front and a quarter inch in the rear. they also have regular sport springs which have a 1.3 inch drop. which ones are everyone rockin? Also, are you guys runnin camber kits? im not a fan of them so im wondering if id need one for these springs because my friend has a pro kit on his sol which supposedly drops the car like an inch and he has camber issues. i know some camber is beneficial to handling but i cant afford new tires every couple of months ya know. i know you need an alignment after you drop your car but im just curious on whether i should check out some other springs or not.

Ok, if you drop your car more than an inch you should be still ok for camber, Actually you'll be negative by a little and it will hold better. If you get anything a lot lower, like 2 inch you'll need one or new tires really quick, and you car won't handle as well as it could because you're running on the inside of your tires. As for springs i'd go for the sports springs, the OEM is way too mild for me, it looks lower than stock but now that much, you'll still have a wheel well gap, atleast on an ek. I'm running h&r sport springs
