The pro kit dampers (at least in my case) are softer and slower to rebound than the stock struts. When entering a corner, the car tends to swing wide, instead of tucking in and pulling through (which I realize is also a function of the springs, tires and weight transfer, etc...). When you hit a bump or pothole, the damping just seems a second too slow. The suspension has been refreshed and the only new parts (that aren t new oem parts or the H&R oe shocks are the eibach pro dampers. I will not be purchasing them again.



What a waste of money. The formerly tighter suspension is now reduced to the seeminly wallowing version I tried to get away from.

My original struts were worn out. Since it was time to replace them, I wanted a sportier set-up without the "slammed" look. Also, since the streets fill with water when it rains hard, the last thing I need is to have the car much lower. This combination is a vast improvement- even over the as-new original setup. Cornering is much flatter, wallowing is non-existant, nose-dive and rear-squat have been drastically reduced - all while keeping a decent ride and plently of suspension travel for large bumps/potholes or when the car/trunk is full of people/stuff. Since my Civic is the LX, there is no rear anti-sway bar so I don''t think I''d see the benefit from going lower without making the control arm swap necessary to install a rear sway bar anyway. Overall, I am very pleased with the ride/handling tradeoff this suspension setup provides me for my daily driver. If I was into racing/auto-crossing, then that would be different, but then again, I''d modify a different car if that was the case....

Gave the right hight to the car. corners beautifully on mid and high speed corners. The car still understeers a bit on low speed corners. Just a bit harder than stock springs. The car looks amazing and the ride quality increased a lot. I highly recommend those springs.
