Haha, if you wanted to know if it was going to look good, why didn't you ask before you bought them?

Personally I would've gone lower but that's not everybody's style...

in my opinion a lowered car doesnt look nice unless its pretty low.. so 1.75/1.5 of course will make your car look better but here's a pic of my old car lowered 1.5-1.7

I had those springs on my Integra with KYB AGX. The combo was nice for street driving but could've been a little stiffer IMO. Also be aware that the H&R WILL sag. Most people end up sagging to 2-2.25" and in Patrick's case he went down to 3" (I still can't figure out why after all these years )

Here's a pic (wheels are 16x7 wrapped in 205/45/16)

i use to have those exact H&R springs 1.75 front and 1.5 rear..... i liked them for a while... as long as u have stock like 55 series tires....i ended up going lower but i had them for like a year.... not bad springs..but not stiff enough for me...the H&R work fine with snow cables.... rub the liner a lil but dont tear them up

No, my springs never sagged. They remained the same height for over 2 years, on the ground.

This is the day after the springs were installed in Feb. 2002


This is Spring 2003:


Late 2003:


This is January 2004 after putting on the 98+ front w/ ITR lip, in the parking garage at school:


Like I said, it was always on the ground from day one.

Here's my DB on Neuspeed sports 1.75f/1.5r. I don't personally like a slammed drop or stiff springs for daily driving.

Hope that helps and sorry for the big pic.

it will look good..... also depends are u planning to keep ur stock wheels.....

h&r sports with rims and my car was slammed

overall, these were the best springs i used, i would definetly recommend them

if u keep stock wheels, i think u can go lower..... up to u

Patrick your car sure looks hella nice on them springs

I was going to get some neuspeed race springs but seems like it would be a bit too low for daily driving so I guess I'll be ordering some sport springs soon.

Question though, would the sport springs be ok on some stock shocks? I really dont have the money now for some new springs and shocks thats why. I'll probably just get the springs first and some shocks next year, would that be ok? Also would I need a camber kit for this degree of drop??
