Suspension question 2002 Civic LX coupe
The ride on my car has sucked since I bought it, but I needed a daily driver that had good milage so I ended up with this beauty. Now that I have broken 160k I think its time to replace the crappy bouncing suspension that is under the car. I have found the following links and was wondering if they were a good buy or should I look at a different setup for daily driving. -

Thank you for the help.

Tokico Blues and either Eibach pro-kit or sport lines is a pretty common daily setup. I have the Sportlines and Blues and I like it for daily driving. Sporty, but not too harsh or anything.
Depending on how long you want to wait to get the suspension and if you want new parts or not, I am hopefully upgrading my suspension soon to koni's and ground control coilover sleeves and would be looking to sell my Blues/Sportlines setup.

If $200 is all that guy wants for them, jump on it right now. A full set goes for at least $450 usually. As far as daily driving - do you want a sportier setup or one that matches stock? If you just want one that matches stock just buy the struts and use the springs currently on your car (they dont need to be replaced). The eibach pro kit is a good compromise for those that daily their car but still want a little better performance but it is noticeably stiffer (meaning less comfortable) than the stock springs.

Re: Suspension question 2002 Civic LX coupe
eh.. with that kinda price, I'd look at it skeptically. Seller feedback seems kind of inconclusive, since people pretty much say, "hey, I got 'em! Thanks! A+"
There are a lot of legit-looking knockoffs on eBay, so you gotta be careful. The price seems alright for the springs, though

Thanks for all the help everyone. Not sure what I'm going to do. Ebay's buyer protection is pretty good so I think I might go wtih what I posted. If they are fake, ill send them packing. I just need something that wont bottom out the wheel well when I drive down the road, my shocks in the front are completely dead. Driving a hydraulic car without hydraulics is nauseating.
