Took about 2 hours and 30 mins to install. Thanks to mad02si helping me out. We had problem with taking off tie rod.on driver side tie rod boot.But no noise so far. Far as bumpstop goes.We didnt cut any,Excellent ride.I paid only 139 shipped from showstoppersusa(thanks chuck). so far so good.Id reommand these springs to anyone who are looking for nice drop. i have about 1 finger gap all around with 215/45/17 now here for pics

Those look like Rota Subzeros but I could be wrong. I have the same setup on my EP (Tein springs w/ Subzeros 16"). Congrats civictec1ps :D . Looks great! I like the black with polished lip. Did you get camber kit with that?

Yeah man, that looks great, but neuspeed sits lower than that.... I dunno, it is a tough decision, i will have rims around X-mas time, so i might just wait till then... opinions?

Here, i found a pic of neuspeed race with stock wheels... looks pretty damn low to me...

Civicvtec1ps
10-04-2003, 11:56 AM
yea race springs ARE low. mad02si has them with 205/40/17, tucked in on rear. probably less than 1 fingergap with stock rims
