I have them on my civic right now. I thought they were ok, compared to the blown shocks I had on it. so lowered it down about 2 inches and they are pretty bouncy and stiff. I didn't have anything to go by, no one in my area has them or a lowered civic so I didn't have much to go on. But I put on some Tokico blues with ground control coils on my teg and they are a million times better. at least you could save up a little and use dropzone coils, but I would get tokico blues, or illuminas. My teg is my daily driver and it feels great.

if your in a pinch for money, they would work. But I highly suggest you get something better, expecially you'll have to get alligned. And you don't want to do that twice. extra money. But after you put them on, you will wish you slapped some other suspension on your ride.

My friend had some on his DA. It ended up cracking up the collar. Couple of months later, there was some pics someone here on H-T posted of drop zone coilovers cracking. Guess it was a common problem. I say stay away from them.

a good set will run you around 2bills so if you plan on just keeping it at that ride height.. Get some tein springs or h and r springs. it would be a great ride. and if your shocks are shot, anything would feel better.

and trust me, I'm a tight *** with money for my car. But spending the money on your suspension is buy far the best money spent.

not sure about those, I saw someone on here selling some koni yellows with ground control for under 500 with less that 300 miles on them. that would be awesome set up too.

ive have had the dropzone shocks and springs (non adjustable) setup in my car for 30k miles since ive owned it, they were installed by the previous owner so i assume they have been in way longer than ive owned the car. I dont mind them, they are decent for the money, with that amount of mileage on suspension, even some of the decent parts wouldve warn out by now.
