    wouldnt get cheap coilovers man, they dont feel stiff the just feel bouncy, if you want to lower your car for cheap just get lowering springs.

    i have skunk2 lowering springs on my integra. i like them. the car doesnt look to be that low. but i have fat 5's and they tend to rub the fenderwells. but the car handles and rides great.

    you could always get omni slip on coilovers.. they are about $200 go on google and look for there website.. they arent the best but they are way beter than what you will get with $20 egay coilovers

    www.omnipowerusa.com here is the website for you man check it out i really would reccomend saving a little more money and going with the slip overs before you go and buy the ebay ones because you will regret it.

    ^ like he said you will bump the whole dam ride and wish you never got them
