7th gen civics have **** struts... let me warn you all now.. mine blew after 15000km on stock springs so good luck to everyone with springs and no money for after market struts.
hmmm and as for a 4" drop.. i dont think you'd wanna ride around like dat

I found out they blew because i bought EIbach Sportlines and went to get them installed and the guy said uhmmmm your struts are gone...
so i got em to put back on the normal garbage honda struts and went to the dealership... they kept my car for over 2 weeks fixing the front struts
This is why i roll SUV style while my springs sit on the floor of my room... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

Maybe the guys said they were blown so you would have to buy aftermarket ones from him.

I have Ground Control and kOnis and the ride is OK. It is not too bouncy but it will never be like stock again.
It does handle very good on turns.
