ES1 Lowering Springs

Hey so I have a 01 Civic Sedan with 17" rims and I'm looking to lower it and I don't want to have to deal with rubbing. The most I want to lower it is 1.5 inches. What lowering springs should I go with? I was looking at Eibach Sportlines, Tein s-tech (heard they sag in rear), or megan racing. Also what kind of shocks do you recommend?

Re: ES1 Lowering Springs

Tein S techs are my fav so far. Never sagged in the rear.

Only neg suspension issues were from buying used springs.
