Help on lowering 96 civic ex
Instead of spending all the money for a full coilover kit can i just get the springs off a ebay store and install those and will those simply replace the stock springs? Please help thank you

Please use the search function (or Google). There are people on this forum (and elsewhere) that take time out of their day to write up FAQ's, DIY's and other great information to help educate the general public. Just do some research.

skunk 2 struts with eibach sportlines!!!! ride is awesome!!!! and under $400
and ebay coilovers are JUNK!!! spring rating is like 450 all around!! dont get them if you like your ribs where they are. there is a reason they are $50!!!
http://www.clubcivic.com/board/showthread.php?t=68904 go here and like zeferint said, do some searching!!! its your car, no one else's. depends if you just want it to look good or want it to handle good as well
on that site i gave you notice the stock spring rating!!!! now let me ask you something, if you take a 450 lbs rated spring put it on a strut that had 100 lbs rating whats gonna happen??? hope you see where this is going!!! you'd basically be riding on springs, what do springs do?? they spring!! get a spring and a strut that can reduce the springiness. anyways I'm not gonna draw you a picture!!!
good luck
you need to look at spring ratings and strut damping
