Help please Guys who are more knowledgeable than I.
I have a 2009 FD Civic which has super soft rear suspension, I want to put KYB shocks on the rear
but the springs are just too soft. My suspension almost bottoms out with passengers in the rear.
The only new springs available are lowered ones.
What would be my best course of action?
Many thanks in advance.

I have just fitted KYB rear shocks and what a huge difference. One of my shocks was cactus, leaking oil and no damping, the other was just plain clapped.
The car is firmer, better steering and miles better handling. And doesn't wander but steers true.
I don't feel the rear springs are too bad now, just needed new shocks.
And bonus was it was a very simple DIY.
