Default Integra question

Hey guys I just bought a 00 Teg GSR with 30k miles on it. I am going to lower it on a set of 205/40/17's and what a really low and progressive look. What kind of srping is the best for my needs, neuspeed, H&R? Also do I need to change the shocks? The car only has 30k on it. Thanks guys.

How much do you want to lower it? 1.5, 1.75, 2 or more?

I have some used Nuespeed Race springs for your Integra if interest.

It drops the vehicle about 2.5", a nice progressive stand look with the wheel combo you have.

PM me and make me an $$$offer

I was looking to drop it about 2". I think 2.5" maybe a little to much. Thanks though. So for a 2 inch drop what brand would be best and also to follow up on my previous question do I need new shocks? I really don't think so but, not to sure I know the GSR comes with ok stock ones.

anymore than 2" and you're gonna be dumped on your nuts. I put Neuspeed Sports on my Integra....plus I have the same size wheels you want to put on it.....was sposed to be 1.75" at it's lowest.......not the case though.....I ended up with over a 2" drop....no problems with rubbing unless I'm riding 2+ deep....pulled out the fender lining though because it used to run a little on one side.......has lost a little drivability being that low though. if you want to see how mine looks, I can send you a pic.

Changing your shocks is always a good idea if you're going for more than an inch or so drop. Stock Integra springs aren't anything to write home about......and with a more agressive drop, they'll be blown quickly.
