Drop Me, Please.
So, I'm looking to drop my car around 2 inches in the front to 2.25 inches in the back or maybe a little lower. I'm having trouble deciding the method I wanna go about in doing this. Springs. If I should just get new springs, what pros and cons of getting just springs will this bring? And same thing with coilovers. I'm stuck on what kind to get, don't wanna spend ALOT of money, but willing to spend a decent amount. I want other member's opinions of what I should get. I don't really know much about the "brands" of all the different sorts, so information on that would be welcome as well.

If you get just springs and you're planning on going down 2 inches, It would be in your best interest to get some aftermarket struts as well. I would normally say get some Tokico blues, but I've read on here that they don't respond well to drops 2 inches or beyond. But with the price of some Koni Yellows or Tokico D-Specs and some nice springs, that puts you into the range of some Omni power, B&G, or Tein Basic full coilover systems. Here's a link to TrueHonda's suspension page, which I've found has some of the lowest prices on suspension parts.

If I were you, I'd probably just spring for the Full coilovers. Which brand though would have to be up to you

I'm digging those omnipower ones. I may just drop the money and get coilovers. When it comes to installation though, Is it a completely different installation then just installing lowering springs? Has anyone ever used the omnipower coilovers? I want a drop with a smooth ride, I'm assuming coilovers would be the best way to go, but any other suggestions are greatly appreciated.
