what are some good lowering springs to use on stock struts?
i want to lower my ek sedan but i cant decide on what lowering springs to get.
ive heard tein springs would be good with stock shocks but i won't lower it like i want it lowered.
skunk 2 springs will give me a nice drop but i've also heard that you dont want to use skunk 2 spings on stock shocks.
i really just would like to know is there any other brand that i can use or consider getting? my price range is only like 200 or 250 for some so im not trying to get anything expensive.
thanks.

Judging by your name, you probably want to be low. Just save for coilovers, or like Kim said, cut your springs.

I'm going to let you in on something that a lot of Honda owners don't hear enough of...... ready?........ You don't have to spend the money as soon as you get it. That's the beauty of money, it can be saved and even increase in value. You can add money to your savings and then spend it on something that won't make your car a dangerous eyesore. Save up about a grand or so and then get some proper, adjustable coilovers like a fucking man.

Anything significantly shorter than stock can bottom out the stock shocks. Anything significantly higher spring rate than stock is not going to be properly damped and can cause seal failure. So those are the two things that will tell.you what springs you can use.
