Alright first post been searching everywhere for a specific answer to my question but can't exactly find it so I'll post this. I drive a 92 civic vx hatch, when I bought it over two years ago it was slammed 3 inches off the ground with struts and lowering springs. My civic is my baby I don't race it and it is my daily driver. I put about 80 on her a day at least. 40 miles one way for work. Decided to buy factory struts and springs because I was sick of speed bumps and s***ty la roads. Once I finished I couldn't stand how ugly it looked at factory height so here I am searching what would be the right spring to use with factory struts, should have done some reading before I jumped the gun on going to factory height. I'm definitely not trying to slam it again just a little drop maybe 1.5 inches or 1.8 at the most. I've read plenty of threads saying you shouldn't use lowering springs with factory struts, but with a mild drop like 1.5 inches would that still be too much stress for a brand new factory strut? Any insight is much appreciated, thanks guys
