jus ordered my springs I went with Eibach Sportlines. :devil: now I won't have the tallest civic anymore (looked funny with the wheels n not lowered) will post up pics as soon as i have em. I just hope i won't have to drive sidways in parking lots and driveways........

I can prolly get really good deals on Eibach for 7thGen members as well.
Sportlines new for $209 for example.....
prolly can get some other brands too.
BTW post here if you are interested I will post back

Ive scraped only once with my sportlines. This was with a 300lbs friend up front and a 150lbs in the back of my coupe. The speed bump was sorta tall and I have an empty trunk.

Yup, he's a 300 lbs taiwanese guy.

When I measured after a week, I dropped about an 1 1/4" all around. It's probably a small amount lower now. I just got back from driving with the 300 lbs above, a 280 pounder, a 180 pounder and myself(160lbs). Went over average sized speed bumps with now probs. the top of my rear wheels were about a 1/4" from being tucked in.

This was the best deal I could find when I was shopping around for some sportlines. I would of bought these for $149 but instead got some used for 80 bucks.

I was thinkin I would change to Toyo T-1s 235/40/17, I have 215/45/17's right now. I just like the look of a thinner tire, almost sittin on the wheel, its just kinda un-practicale
