Default Suspension Suggestions

Hey, just wondering what everyone else puts on their civic, I gotta 93 ex and wanna put on a good shock/spring combo. I was thinking either the Eiback Pro-System kit or the Tokico Illumina Suspension Kit. Any input?

for springs i would try a set of Tein S-Tech will run you about $160 and it’s like a 1.8 drop but they work with your stock shocks and you don’t need a camber kit,2 of thess guys did..its weard.. Here are 5 links from people that have already installed them on here, myself, mynmisoli, 97_nw, x2100 and 05 civic

Depends on how low you want to go. I think the Eibachs are only 1.3. H&R's are amazing, look into some teins as well...

werd! I have Tokico HPK's, 1.4 drop up front, 1.0 in the rear, and I'm already seeing tire wear problems in the rear. [:@] I have not gotten an alignment yet though, waiting till I get new tires. I will probably do tires, camber kit, and alignment all at once.
