I bought a eibach race kit : 1 in drop springs ,shocks and struts ,sway bars. It handles like a ------- rally car and feels like you are driving on glass ( smooth ).Well worth the money .

I got H&R's on my integra (93) they are alright, just need to make sure you a get a camber kit.

hey just a lil tip man, as far as aftermarket springs go... i think sprint are a little bit less stiff then eibach and h&r. Tenzo r and progress arent so bad either. keep in mind progress designs springs stiffer to hold more weight for cars with motor swaps. If you lower morethen 2 in id recommend a camber kit, however i dont recommend u lower ur car more then 1.25 if you want to keep the smooth feel, most importantly with any springs ur gonna need the expensive stuff which is some expensive shocks... when u cut ur springs which i dont recommend because now u have a not so stiff spring being compressed more and when u hit a bump ur shocks have to work harder and fast and stock ---- aint gonna cut it to keep it smooth, u def wanna go with an after market spring in my opinion or after 2 - 3 months ur shocks will be gone and the car will ride like ----. The right way is to go all out, shocks and springs

My eibachs ride great. Only problem is now that I swapped in a B18, my front tires rub sometimes. Who makes great handling springs or coilovers that are a little stiffer. Either that or I'll just get coilovers and raise my ride height. Any ideas?

your going to have to raise your ride height my man, eibachs are right up there in stiffness with anyone else and even a little stiffer spring wont stop your rubs, trust me, raise the height
