eibach sportlines vs. h&r sport springs just wondering what u guys think. currently i have my civic dropped on sportlines but i'm going to get h&r sport springs along with koni adjustable shocks. im going to install the shocks but am not sure if i should keep the sportlines or try the h&r's? i want to know about the experience of those who run on h&r springs. thanks.
well i have H&R's and i've had them on for about 9 months now. my front has roughly 1.5" gap from the top of my tire to the fender. and the back about a 1" gap from the top of the tire to the fender. BUT the RIGHT SIDE of my car is like slightly hire. so the measurments above are of my LEFT side. my right however is like. 25" higher than the left so yea. if that helps any. i'll try to take pics of my drop once i find my sisters Digital cam.

Now I have Eibach (pro kit (?) middle of the line) and they are for sedan/coupe. I'll install them what it's get warm outside. It should be much better with Eibachs. So, I'd say, keep your current springs and just upgrade shocks. Personaly I'd go AGX 4-way shocks, due to their adjustability.

Rep Power: 276 regarding the gap. the rear of my civic is lower than the front and that really sucks cuz ive expected an even drop. i might get pro kit for the rear to even it up.

I looked at your car, It looks allright, but I was able too see that front has bigger gap then back.
But is way better than with h&r, there was hardly any gap.
yea. i dont know what difference would that make if id have sportlines in the front and pro kit in the rear. i dont think it would affect anything. what do u think.

If its is just to drive around and not to engage into any track driving, then it doesnt matter. Pro-kit has milder drop and this should keep sedan's @ss up.
