I'm just wondering if I were to install aftermarket shocks and struts, will this relive or eliminate the bounciness associated with springs. I have 18's riding on eibach sportlines and it is a pretty bouncy ride at times.

thanks !

Sure would, especially if you get some adjustable type, where you can increase the damping rate of the strut. I belive the Koni model that is out for our 2K1 civic's is the "yellow" model, which means it should be adjustable. I personally am waiting for Tokico to come out with som struts, I don't like Koni's cause all the weight of the car rests on a single plastic bushing on the top of the rod.
