Got new rims now I need it Lowered

I have a question I hope you guys can answer for me. I have a 04 Civic EX coupe and I just bought 215/45/17 wheels and tires. The next thing I want to do is lower the car. What I am looking for is more for comfort and no racing or anything like that. I want a nice ride to it. I dont want to drop it alot but may 1.5" or so. What kinda springs and shocks should I go for if thats what I need and how much are these parts gonna cost me total and what is about the cost for installation. Again all I want is to lower it to remove some wheel gap and for ride comfort and to look good. Thanks everyone

The closest spring that I know of that rides close to stock comfort is probably the Eibach Prokit. Its supposedly about 10% firmer then stock, however it will only drop you about an inch. Sportlines are 1.5" drop but 20-25% firmer.

I run Eibahc ProKit on my car, with KYB AGX's, and it rides pretty damn good. Not real harsh or anything.
