Re: suggestions on good spring/shock combos?

i just looked up their springs for your 01 civic, and it says that it lowers it 1.3 all the way around.

i had the race springs, and they are a lil lower. they lowered my prelude 1.9 in the front, 1.6 in the rear. i dont see where they offer the race springs for your car. maybe look into eibach springs?

Re: suggestions on good spring/shock combos?

i'm really trying to avoid coilovers because i never adjust the height...whenever i've had them in the past, i'll put it at one setting and never touch it again...do you have a suggestion for just regular springs?

Re: suggestions on good spring/shock combos?

Well, you can't go wrong with Eibachs. If it was me I'd get Swift springs but they're a little pricey.

You''d probably be happy with Eibach Sportlines with Yellows.
