Whats up guys, haven't been on here.. Well i am in the spot to buy some springs for my 2002 honda civic dx.. I got so many choices but being stock on struts limits my inches to go down.. I was going buy the Megan racing since they are 1.5 all around.. I heard good bad stuff about em.. Can u guys please help me buy the springs now.. My budget for the civic this month is 150-200 bucks and i really want drop my car.. Should i get megan or another brand..?

Thanx guys..

Also is the suspension from coupe and sedan same? Like would the springs from coupe fit on sedan?

Tein S-Techs (1.3"/1.4" F/R) $160

Eibach Sportlines (1.4" F/R) $216

Progress sport springs (1.8"/2.0" F/R) $237


Thmotorsports ships free for orders over $99, and I think coupon code "5offfive" still works for 5% off

Edit: I wouldn't recommend the last set unless you had shocks that can handle the drop. At least I can tell you from experience that stock shocks will last a decent amount of time with the Teins and, presumably, the eibachs, too.

ok.. But the problem is the only ebiach and tein i can find is the 0.7-1.3 inch drop.. I really want like 1.5-2.0 drop and tein or ebiach dont have those numbers.. Skunk is the best deal for me from the looks of it http://thmotorsports.com/store/accou...x?itemid=57063..

I will be upgrading my shocks next month but now i am just looking for springs..

if your getting better shocks next month then why not get Ground Control adjustable sleeves ??? ground control uses Eibach springs.
http://thmotorsports.com/ground_cont...t/g-53532.aspx i would also recommend pairing these with Koni Yellow shocks.

if you going to get shocks next month, buy the springs you want that the shocks you looking for can handle. the stock shocks "might" last long enough (or not, it's a lucky game).
but why not change all at the same time? alignment will need to be done anyways or you might find your tires getting strange in a month's time...

Being that your budget is $200,
You wont go any lower than ~1.5.

Please do not forget to factor in alignment costs
Any lower you're looking into shocks and camber kits, which will run you couple hundred at the very least.

Duhh lol.. i know i got money for all that but i rather save up till next month and get the whole setup, shocks, springs, camber.. But i know for sure i am not going go koni springs the ones that are 132 bucks i see alot of bad reviews about them.. I might just go 2 inch bg springs... They are the best deal for me 230 bucks but its 2.0 inch drop!

I know ppl would say save ur money go coilovers well i want to have stiff suspension for the mountain roads up in NC and Virginia.. Love driving through twisty roads!
