I wouldn't go tooo low tho. tenzo makes some nice, smooth (and cheap!) lowering springs for hondas....check into that

Tenzo is absolute shit, and Tokico isn't a whole lot better.

No shit Tokico is crap until you get into their coilovers and then they are simply decent for a coilover but far from great.
Tenzo I wouldn't put on my worst enemies car let alone my own...complete junk.

Just grabbing a 2" drop spring set tells us nothing. if you get a 2" drop spring from an of brand and it ends up being variable rate then it may crap out your shocks in an hour, get a liner rate and the shocks will behave differently etc. So it really depends, you can't just say a 2" drop is fine because each spring settles differntly and the spring rate has a lot to do with this as well.

BTW why do you keep posting these tech questions in the Basement?
I think I am going to close this thread and tell you to post suspension questions either in the sus[pension forum or your model specific forum instead.
Each succesive thread with your wonderfully brilliant tech question will also be closed.
I understand an emergency question or opinion questions once in a while but your questions are borderline troll questions and I really hate seeing your latest posts because I know it is just going to be some very boolean question and you aren't going to listen anyways.
So I close this thread now
