I have eBay springs on my EF, they came on the car, and even with the Tokico blue shocks, it's still horrible ride quality. I feel stupid bouncing around next to everyone else.

GroundControl and Skunk2 make good coilover that are supposed to have a decent ride quality, and won't kill your bank accoutn either.

Don't go cheap on the stuff that holds up your car.

Don't go cheap on the stuff that holds up your car.

The bouncing can cause a driving/safety hazard, bro.

I was driving with a friend to the mall, we encountered an Accord(early 90's model), it either had cut springs or cheap springs on it. When we went of a few bridges, it bounced so much that the rear wheels literally came off the road causing the car to almost hit another car beside it.



Stay safe, bro. You can't enjoy you car dead.

There are certain areas of the car that I wouldn't cheap out on, suspension is one of those areas. It's better to save up and buy the better parts than to buy the cheap stuff, and then have to replace it once it breaks or you find out how crappy the ride is.

Suspension is the last place that should be cheap on your car

Springs are really cheap for civics.. decent ones only run 150 bucks.

+1 on the intrax springs!
they have lifetime warranty and forged, no sag and one of the better springs ive researched!

Most others tien, skunk2, etc have a 1 year warranty for the same price.

i think the Intrax lower 1.8-2.0"
