I have Skunk 2 springs for the RSX. Lowered the car 2.5"s looks nice, and because they are for the RSX which is a heavier car, the ride is stiff, but not to stiff, handles really well.
H&R
Eibach
Tein
Intrax
Neuspeed
Progress
I love the progress. The stiffness isn't quite as much as the sportlines. I'm running on konis. I like the progress more overall, since it drops it like I want, the sportline rides a little higher than I'd like...but the sportline is more stiff springs, so it would handle better if I had the sportlines. I think from what I felt from driving my friend's car with the sportlines, is that it is about 5% stiffer than the progress, not much, but you can tell a tad difference.Originally posted by SiR Dude

I have rsx tein on my car. The ride was exactly what i was looking for. It is not too stiff and not too soft, just right. According to tein, stech lowers rsx 1.7 in the front, but beware that on Si, it will be, according to my estimate, a 2.25 inch drop in the front. That was easily fixed though. I went out to autozone and purchased 1 inche spring spacers for the front for 4 bux. The rears drop is exactly 1.4 inch. THerefore will leave the front slightly noticeable an uneven drop, but that was what i wanted. :) Love the ride!
Previously on my EP: H&R Sport (traded for IceBox) Tein S-Tech (sold)
Currently on my EP: Eibach Sportline (I'll keep'em)
Best of the other two that I owned. Had H&R on past Hondas, but didn't like the ride on the EP.
I was gonna get H&R until you made that comment. I really don't know what to go with...right now, i guess it's either gonna be Eibach, or Tein... both companies have reputable names as well as ISO9001 certification so they're both top notch...the drop is the same as well...Originally posted by EP33

can anyone please post pictures of a tein drop as well as an eibach drop? i have 17" rims i'm gonna put on with 215/40/17 tires and i'm just wondering how each setup looks...THANKS! greatly appreciated cuz i'm gonna lower my car sometime next month
02SilverSiHB has pictures of a lot of the cars on different springs. One is of mine on Sportlines the day after we put them on. The springs have settled a lot more since then. Still absolutely no butt sag. The drop is to my liking and it would look better with 17's. 02SilverSiHB had the Teins and they showed nasty butt sag. The performance of my sportlines is incredible as well as the ride quality. Time for new tires though. Give 02SilverSiHB a holler and he'll probably send you the pics.
Driftin Si, was the one who turned me on to H&R springs. To be honest, I had never heard of them since I'm a newbie. H&R springs are SWEET! I'm taking corners faster and the car looks so much better.
Zero Three Si, what springs are you using? are you using H&R part #51866-2?

I have the pro kits and they are awesome... no camber kits were necessary and I am running just within spec! Highly recommended...
how's the ride quality though?

I have S-Tech, and drive about 30-40miles aday, great ride:D
