Just bought an 2013 Civic Si about 3 weeks ago, never had an Honda!...so far, not bad. Runs and sounds sweet. Especially with all the TRD parts installed.

Anyways, about the Suspension issue. The car has lowering springs/struts which is nice but, however going over speed bumps makes it hard to manuever without breaking something lol. Well, I tried taking my car to Trade Quaters and Big Al's Muffler & Brakes to get the suspension higher to normal height. Trade Quaters said they didn't have the tool to get them higher, which I think they got the tool but didn't want to bother with the strut/springs or whatever the reason is. Big Al's Muffler & Brakes can raise the suspension up but, it would cost me $1500+. They said it would be cheaper to just buy regular struts and springs and they can install them. Most likely will go that route this week.

My question is this...what suspension/strut/springs brand is trustworthly or most commonly used? Also, would it be best to use gas/hydrologic struts or Air Lift Struts?
