arent springs and coilovers the same thing??? or are you trying to say springs or strut/spring combo?

 

yeah i meant springs with shocks or a full coilover kit???? wat u think

 

no, springs and coilover are NOT the same thing, you can adjust the height of a coilover, and you can not do the same with a spring. It looks pretty good already so i dont think you'll need a very big drop (even though the pics dont really show your wheel gap), safe way to go is with a 1-1.7 inch drop, Eibach, H&R and Tein are good brands.........go to www.procivic.com and look at the suspension section to see what you want, then ebay it for some cheaper prices

 

Thanks ill put picks up soon!!

 

If you want coilovers, there is a group buy for Ksport coilovers for $600.00 at www.eghatchback.com. I'm getting a set myself. Welcome to HCF!!!

 

Unless of course you buy adjustable struts like i have...AGX makes a pair, now with both adjustable struts and coil overs, you can adjust your ride hight, but it will effect your handling, you adjust it by increasing or decreasing the stiffness....decreasing it will lower your car, but you will sacrifice handling, maybey even hit your bump stops all the time, or bottom out like mad. increasing it will let you ride a little higher but you will become very annoyed by it every time you hit a bump!

 

are you trying to promote their sales or something, i've seen you post this in like 5 different threads. and just to let you know, a lot of people here (including myself) picked up a set of Ksports for $560 shipped, rather than $40 more for what you're getting.btw, we got them fromjlbmotorsports at that price.
