Default Which lowering springs should I get?

I need help in deciding which lowering springs to get between these three... Eibach Pro-Kit, Eibach Sportline, and H&R Sport. The springs will be going on a daily driven '99 Civic EX coupe with 17's... 205/40's... coupled with KYB AGX's. Please give any and all insight on these springs you may have. Thanks for your help.

I had a set of Neuspeed Race lowering springs a long time ago and they claimed that it lowered 2" even after settling, but I was left with a disappointing gap between my fenderwell and tires (what used to be 205/40/16's). But with your current wheel and tire setup, this might be the perfect stance for you where the fender and tire would be flush (if that's the look you're looking for that is).

H&R sports are a little stiffer than Sportlines and are also progressive. Prokits don't lower much.

H&R :thumbup:

Slacker - How much of a gap, if any, is there in the front and rear fenders? BTW, that's a nice ride :thumbup:.

I could get my fingers in between the fender and the tire if thats what your asking. Thats it though. No more room. Plus I have the fenders rolled.


Thx!
