best springs?

I'm going back to springs on my civic and I wanted to know what the biggest drop springs that are out there and what you guys and girls think of them. I've got ground control coilovers, and I'm not wanting to go with coilovers just springs. I use to have a set of H&R springs. There were ok. I just wanted everyones opinion.

Well, logically thinking isn't the lower you go, the worst the ride gets?? (because there's less spring... ) [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

I have sprint 2", and i think they make some 2.5 or 2.75" drop.

I'd recommend Sprint eventhough there's not much feedback about this company.

it all depends on how low you want. If you wanting a subtle drop go with Eibach if you want a substantial drop go with neuspeed, these wouldbe my choice if i choose to go with springs.

I've just finished dropping my coupe on Neuspeed Sports 2dr and i'll tell ya theres a huge difference in the way the car looks.. I know the sports only drop the car about 1.75 but thats all that I can really fit with my 18's and 215/40 tires. about 1 thin finger gap all the way around......my buddy has neuspeed race and we cant put my rims on his cause his drop is to much.... All in all i'm pleased with my Sport drop and highly recommend them...though i am curious about those H&R's you had on before...how wsa the look and the ride quality?? How much gap was left in the fenderwell?? was the drop even, or was the front higher than the rear??

I have neuspeed sports and I am very happy with them, they ride really well and look really good. I would go with neuspeed.

well since you have ground controls, what height are they adjust to now? from there, decide what drop you want... if your like me chances are neuspeed sports arent going to do it for you.

got Sprints too (2" drop)...nice ride, not that bouncy w/ stock struts.
my only complain is, they sag too much at the back...thinking about buying those spacers
might use 2 just to raise the back. anybody here has spacers, let me know what's up with it
thanks.
