well there are alot of options when it comes to drop...if you want adjustable drop, go with coilovers...if not, go with springs, but no matter what, make sure you get good adjustable shocks with them....if you go coilovers, tein ss are a really good full setup. If you wanna go sleeve coilover, go with ground control and either tockio illumina or koni yellow shocks. If you go with springs, go with either H&R sport (low), H&R race (really low). eibach prokit (not too low), or eibach sportlines (pretty low). I have a 2000 accord EX and i've got ground control coilovers with tokico illumina shocks, i love'em. i've got the car dropped about 2" all around.

This topic is fairly open ended.

I'm running Eibach Pro-kits, Eibach rear camber kit, Koni Yellow Shocks, TL-type S sway bars, and Type-S strut bar.

I think the ride is firm but daily livalbe.

Tein SS kit is definately street drivable, handle unbelievably, fully adjustable, and the shocks are amazing.

Specifically the EDFC system for lazy guys like me that lets me adjust my shock dampening force from inside my cabin and without any wrenches

I'll post a pic a little later.

-2.4F/-2.0R drop, but it's obviously adjustable, I just have mine set to standard out-of-the-box settings.

What kind of car do you have? Cause there is no coilover system for Accords that is EDFC compatible last time I checked.
