Ive been looking into getting new springs for my civic (96-98). Debating which one would ride better? Eibach sportlines or Tein S ...on Stock Shocks though... Lastly someone is selling Eibach sportlines for a EG and wondering if it would fit the 96-98 civic? HE said it would but the spring rates are different. Not sure since that car is lighter and my car is more heavy, the ride would be more bouncy or just sit alil lower? Thanx

what are looking for looks, performance, ride quality, all?
i say the biggest thing you should look between those two are the spring rates each offer.

if you want looks and decent performance aspect then i say get something in the 250-350 lbs/in (is that correct way to list spring rate)
if you want mainly performance and are willin to sacrifice comfort look for some 400-500ish lbs/in springs

i'm still learning a lot myself but figuring out what spring rate you're car has and going from there could help too seeing as me and you could be in two complely different boats and 200ish lbs/in may already be something you may already have n stuff like that

mods correct me if my mode of thinking is off

as for drop height they'd both fall in the same range usually in stance but don't quote me on that either

honda-tech is a good source of looking into that kinda info but if you don't have a honda i don't know how much of the info you find will be useful to you
