H&R Springs with KYB Struts??

so im going to pick up some suspension tonight and i was just looking for some feedback on the springs and struts im purchasing.

The springs are H&R Sportline 2" in the front 1.7" in the rear.

The struts are KYB GR-2.

Ive never had a lowered car before lol how much does this effect your driving esp with the lip kit in the front ?? Thanks

i had the same set up on my 94 accord ex and i LOVED it. i'll put this way it handled so well(plus i had performance tires) i had a mercedes sl500 pull over because i was out cornering him down the back roads where i we take our cars that don't just go in a straight line. anyway i think great set up!

I had tokico with eibach on my 03 tl. Replaced it with kyb with h&r. They are almost identical on paper, but the ride is way better with kyb/h&r.

I know H&R pretty well and they have always served me well. Have never personally used KYB struts but have heard good things. Lowering your car effects the way you drive by quite a bit. Learning new ways to get around town while avoiding sudden dips and speed bumps is annoying at first but you get used to it, the price you pay for beauty. Eventually you figure out special little tricks which can save you from bottoming out constantly.
