After doing some research I figured that Koni Yellows are the best way to go for shocks. However, I don't know what lowering springs to choose. Right now I'm leaning towards Skunk2, Einbach, or H&R. But others are referring Tein lowering springs. I want to drop my car 1.5"-2". I also want a stiffer ride, but I don't want coilovers.

Koni's are really nice but they might be a little over kill if your only going down an inch or so and are not going to have a high spring rate. I have Eibach Sportlines and Tokico's. they offer a great balance between comfort and handleing. Koni's are a pain to instal also, Tokico's are direct bolt on.

Eibachs will be good if you want a stiffer ride.
Teins tend to give a softer/smoother ride, which I like better.

Junk2's will break your spine.

What do you mean by it may be overkill? How low should the car drop if using Koni's? I've read people using them and dropping 1.5"

H&R seem to have good reviews for civics
neuspeed as well
i use the eibachs and work great for me.

If I get Neuspeed springs will it "look" level between the rear wheel and wheel well?? I was reading that Eibachs and other springs make the front look higher than the rear because of the left/right wheel turn in the front.

Because of the extra work required to instal Koni's, you could use a Tokico and be fine (since you are not slamming it and using high spring rates). If you don't mind doing the extra instal required with the Koni's then they would be a great addition to any lowering spring.
