i had them on my 96 civic and had no problems with them. i paired them up with tokico blues. however, robbclark1 knows way more about suspension than i do so i would go with whatever he says...

I am just going by reputation and what I have heard. I have no personal experience with them. So if hondasales says he liked them, then he has more experience with them than me. I do believe that there are better springs.

i remember them being very stiff, but that's the type of ride that i like. i have the tein s-techs with koni yellows now and like the handling characteristics much better than the tenzo/tokico setup i had on my '96.

I have Tenzo R 2" springs on my 02 Vic right now. They are ok but I am also on stock struts which makes the ride a little rougher. Tenzo does gaurantee them not to sag. I just bought Airstruts so I am going to sell the Tenzos if You want em. $50 plus shipping. Doesn't look like You are too far from where I am in Alabama if You want to check them out.
