Default Springs or coilovers for my Acura rsx 2005

Hi everyone I want to lower my rsx, it currently has 17" wheels and I don't want to lower it all the way to where its almost hitting the wheels. I don't want to lose driving quality/performance if I don't need to. I just want it to look nice and noticeable.. I'm not quite sure if I should go with just lowering springs or coilovers.. I need some pointers and advise..thank you all..

Either Koni STRT shocks and Eibach ProKit (not sportline) springs would work fine.

A better alternative for about the same $$ is Tein's Street Advance coilover system.

There are all sorts of options based on different usage parameters and price points. The above 2 are the most simple, effective solutions, with the correct features for a street driven car that come to mind. They both have compromises that come with those price points...but a vast majority of people are very happy with them.

I think Bilstein also makes a PSS9 for the RSX. Its a bit more $$, but its very very good. The downside being that its zinc plated. But that's only a downside if you use the car in road salt.

I'm sure AMR or PIC or other custom build companies can help you with a very nice setup as well.
