Default Lowering Springs....Which is better and Why?

OK people. I am looking to my 05 Civic EX lowered alittle bit and I am checking out ebay for prices and what not. Here are two different links to two different products.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TEIN-...em350035028868
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA...em110232562890

I believe they are made of the same material and all. So, let me know which one is better for me.
Also, I was reading something about needing coilovers. First, what are coilovers and what are they used for? Also, do I need them or are the springs by them selves ok? I will posting some pictures of the car also so you can get an idea of what it looks like right now. Thanks.

1.9" is a pretty big drop and after a while you might want a camber kit but just so you know in advance after you lower your car you will want struts because the stock ones might blow out (i have oem ones if you want extras let me know off my 03) but i would go with the TIEN because $25 is pretty cheap and you get what you pay for and 1.5" is a good enough drop if you look at my pf i have a 2" drop front and rear.
