Lowering my 05 Civic, Springs vs. Coilovers?

[DreadAngel]

I am not too sure, they didn't specify, the lady just asked me if I had any desired spring rates in mind!

Other mods that I'll be getting soon are gonna be rear sway bar, front and rear strut bars, sometime at the end of this year I'll get EP3R/DC5R brakes kit (May be JDM DC5R Brembos if I found a good deal? :P) and in the far future a k20/K24 swap after that D17 starts getting tired

That's the kinda of low I am after if that'll help reach a decision on what spring rates to get.. about two or one and half fingers gap between the tyres and the fenders

Hmmm... Ok...

Probably best to get springs on the soft side since we're not 100% on the K20 swap [Far future most likely change afterall]. Moderate drop like that... I'd go probably around...

F - 3.5-4.0k
R - 6.25-6.75k

NB: Higher spring rate at the rear to account for the Sedan shape, these above spring rates are modified from my work with EP3R.
