thanks for the good info! i might just do that, just get the stiffer springs and ride like that

 

No worries, we can get you the springs individually, just shoot us a PM!

 

some great info here

 

12k10k im big on comfort and i have my front 5 from soft and rear 1 from softest. there is quite a bit a of travel from both but its comfortable. when i have the dampening on full stiff the strut pops back up too quick, had some one who rides in crappy civics all day say he was getting sick cuz of how fast it was rebounding. 10k in the rear will hold. but if you looking for less travel from the coils your better of doing a company that has a different setup where the strut travel decreases as you go lower. just my .02 cents.
I am currently looking for ways to stiffen up the front cuz there is more body roll than i want. i scrape in the front on big dips. only the exhaust rubs in the rear even when backseat and trunk is full. back is set at the rim. look at my pics to see what height it is at to compare.

 

matter of fact, one of my good friends here with an SC did the exactly that. he wanted less travel so he switched from BC coils to PBM coils

 

Would anyone recommend to get the 16k/14k set up? I do plan on going low. Not sure whether to go 16/14 or 14/12.

 

thats pretty stiff IMO... i have 12/10 and i think it's pretty much perfect

 

it all depends on your setup. if your gonna be really low id recommend going high. i had 16/14 in my camry and it was cool with me. when i lower my is i will probably go 32/30. the ride is rough but if your gonna be low static its so worth it

 

yeah if you are going slammed, then i would do those. as a matter of fact those are the rates i was planning on going with, then go about a 1/2' lower all around...



static life

 

Thanks for chiming in guys. Do you guys think 16/14 would be great if I aim for tire tucking? There will probably be no rubbing right?

 

now im all about stiff spring rates on a static slammed car but i think in the 30's is too too stiff. unless the 2IS was like a 4k lbs car but since its not, i think up teens, low low 20's spring rates would be as high as i would go and i plan on being slammed out static

i think those would be fine honestly. thats about the range im going with next just because im rubbing wheel lip to fender in the rear badly on hard enough dips. so im thinking either 18k or 16k front and 12k-14k rear

 

I am currently stuck between getting 14k front 10k rear and getting 12k front 10k rear. I want to lower my car like 1 inch. Do enjoy some curvy roads but I kind of want it to be comfortable for daily driving. This is my first time buying coils so i am wondering if adjusting the dampening really makes a Difference in ride comfort. Because if thats the case then i might get 14k and 10k. I have decided to get the swift spring option. just stuck on the springrate
