Here's my 1.4" tokico set up. The fronts settled some more (the pic was like an hour after the front install) so now they are about the same as the back. Just a point of reference for ya.

h-tech teins have about an inch drop and s-tech have 1.9" front 1.7" rear. i have the s-techs on my civic but you should get some shocks/struts sometime down to line. it really helps with the ride. ill be getting some pics up soon of my civic. but i have a 00 black with 17" white rims. so you can see what it look like.

Ok this guys wants 70 for his HandR springs and he said i can have the stock shocks, the drop it 1.75 in the front and 1.5 in back, and he used for 5 months. Are these good? Is it a good deal? I dont want it dropped to much i want like an in of wheel gap many 2, i dont know what stock is at but i just dont want to hit on speed bumps. I live in socal and if you have ever been here you know there are speed bumps every ten feet. If you do have any pictures of this set up or one like it post them or send me the link, thanks guys! Hey mybrokenblinker what size rimes are those, 15's[align=right]

$70 for H&R Sport springs? That's a steal! I'd hop on that... I've been riding on 1.5" drop w/stockies a yr 1/2 and no prob. Speedbumps aren't an issue either. Now that I have 17s, I know I'm a bit higher off the ground now. Go for a 2" drop, you'll be happier.
