    Arospeed / RSR Adjustable Coilovers are designed to give you the look you want while maintaining the quality ride that you desire. These adjustable coilovers allow adjustment of 0" - 4". Height is adjusted through the use of a threaded sleeve that fits over your stock or aftermarket shocks/struts and a dual locking perch mechanism. Fully adjustable kit includes 4 linear-rate springs, 4 threaded sleeves , 4 locking perches, 4 urethane bushings and 2 wrenches.

    Pros:
    Adjustable
    Cheap

    Cons:
    Cheap (not as complete as a full coilover solution)
    Still will blow stock shocks over time (especially if you drop
    them low)

    Most people don't adjust their suspension once it's on. Unless you
    hit the track often/lower it for shows or something. So having
    adjustable springs on stock shocks, to me, is about the same as
    just putting on lowering springs.

    Save up the $$$ and get a full set of coilovers (springs and shocks),
    like the Mugen, Tein or KW's. You'll be much happier, IMO.

    Anybody else vote for Ground Controls? I wanted a sleeve/coilover for my 4 Door Civic about a year ago and searched around, rode in a few cars and settled on Ground Controls as the best ride, adjustability, etc...they are expensive but well worth it! Of course, a full coil-over suspension will be the best but if you don't want to spend that then buy a quality sleeve system like GC! I've never once regretted my decision!
    Now that I have the EP though...I will probably just get springs cuz I never adjusted my coils...but the quality was great so who knows? I just got my EP though so mods are waiting a good while!
    GOOD LUCK!!!
