Deciding whether to go eibach pro or H&r sport on my 2003 ex coupe. I am leaving the stock 15" old si rims on there. Any like or dislike either of these kits from people who have them or used them before. And how much of a gap will i have with either of these kits. Do either of these kits tend to sag. if so how much. I want to match em with the kyb agx whenever there finally released. But i want to buy the springs asap.

go with h&rs... they are just as good as eibach if not better for much much less... your going to have a big gap tho, to most people your car is still going to look stock height. i dropped my car 1.75" and people can hardly tell my car is even dropped. you'll probably have a good 2.5 - 3 finger gaps left

I have H&R sprots, and on the street I run with a 205/40ZR17. theres about a 2 finger gap all the way around. when I run my race tires, 205/50R15 then there is about a 3 to 4 finger gap, but thats because I have "short" tires to help with acceleration.

Here is a shot of mine, I have H&R sports and Koni shocks, The ride height is perfect for me.

I want to get the h&r sport springs for my civic along with 17" wheels with 205/45/17 tires, i don't plan to change the stock dampers because of cost, will i have a harsh ride? also do i need to align my car after installing the wheels and springs? do i need to wrry about camber?

camber you probably wont need.
it is recommend you get an alignment anytime you lower your car.
ride is going to be worse than stock obviously but it shouldnt be too bad.

It can be a little rough, as the springs are quite stiff (They are a sport spring first, lowering spring second) but other then that I am quite happy with them. They are great for autocross, thats what I got them for. STreet ride quality was secondary.

hey 666, what size tires do you have? and how big is your gap?

Tires are 215/35-18 and the gap is exactly two fingers. Here is a visual aid:
