Default H&R Integra/Civic dilema

Ok the question is are the H&R Sport springs for the 94-01 integra the exact same as the 92-00 civic springs? Because you would think when buying from an ebay power seller with 100% positive feedback over 4000 you would get the right springs. The first set they sent me was for a G2 teg and now they sent me the Civic product number but i called and they said even though H&R puts different part numbers on the integra and civic springs they are exactly the same drop and spring rate. I put them on tonight and they drop looks good but i was expecting a stiffer ride. I have a 95 LS.

Default H&R vs OEM civic springs

I may be wrong,but that sound like complete BS. H&R I think would
be completely different than OEM civic springs. I personally stay
away from e-bay sellers. Good luck.

Who told you the spring rates were the same?
H&R?
Or the seller?

If it was the seller, I wouldn't trust his word at all. If he can't ship you the correct springs, what gives his word credibility?

Since they're installed, I doubt he'll accept them for an exchange.. but I would have sought confirmation from H&R before installing them.

It sounds to me like your stuck with them now..

They are different spring rates....the cars are different weights. There's a reason that H&R sells them in application specific springs.

Does anyone know h&r's phone number because the 888 827.8881 on their website is an invalid phone number when i call it. Would a distributor know the spring rate info?
