check out the pics ...

Hey ...

Lots of people like different drops. I went with Comptech ... a little more than the others but you know they are meant for our cars. I'd advise you take a look at other people's rides and see what it looks like. Eibach makes good ones (great rep) but you might have camber issues down the road. H&R springs -- they're designed for the Accord so they'll have a lower drop than what the website claims (TL way heavier than Accord).

Whatever you pick, you car will look WAY better than at its stock height.

My $0.02.

some pics i've seen have H&R sports way lower in the rear than the front. This would piss me off. I ordered comptechs last week for extremely cheap but the dude said they got stolen. I just took the money and got H&R sports again. I kinda wish I could have got comptechs tho. I really hope they don't sag in the rear

The springs I like best are the Comptechs...I've since switched to coilovers though.

if youre gonna order eibachs make sure they are for the tls not the cls. there is a specific part number for tl eibachs. some shops misunderstand cls and tls use the same spring, but they dont. i had this problem with tirerack.

if ur looking for even a bit less of a drop compared to comptechs...check out the Tein H-Tech Luxury Springs...they drop 1.5" in the front and 1.0" in the rear....i will be going this route as soon as i can find a buyer for my H&R OE springs...IMO this is the perfect drop for someone looking for a little drop that's a bit more than the OE springs and a bit less than the comptechs....not to mention the company is reknown....
