Default Full Coilovers with Pillowball Uppermounts?

I recently got a 2001 Civc EX Sedan. I've allready put 18" on the car. Has anybody lowered the sedan yet. I hang out at the local car shop and work at one as well and I have never seen a lowered 01-05 sedan. If you have or know anybody who has, how was it?

wow i just noticed that i kinda ended that one without really explaining the whole thing. I actually have the Tein Super Street suspension which will be going on tomorrow and just wanted to know if anybody else had those springs and what they thought about them. Can't really ask all the guys with Nissans, they just don't understand.

a lot of people are half and half on tien, i believe the ss' are fairly stiff (i think), and i've heard good things about that set, but not on your model, sorry i'm not much help, but that's all i've heard.

i was just kidding, the tire size/profile and suspension all play a relative role, and in his case, the tein ss coilovers are not that "smooth" as so i hear.
