I think H&R race springs are the lowest but the ride quality isn't all that great. Most people seem to go with Tein Stechs or H&R Sport since they give a moderate drop and still retain good ride quality.

Research! Just look at springs for sale, write down the specs and BOOM... you pick the one with the lowest drop!

its pretty simple to look at the advertised specs to see which ones are the lowest...
Head to www.store.excelerateperformance.com
and or
www.heeltoauto.com

are we in a state of idiocracy?

I've got the H&R Sports Springs on my Type S and like them a lot.

Since you wanted the lowest drop possible you probably don't care too much about ride quality, but for what it's worth I had new H&R sports for a few weeks until I couldn't deal with the shitty ride anymore. Back to stock and a lot happier!! :-)

^i think you're an isolated incident. i know plenty of people with those springs and OEM shocks and they have no complaints.

I had the same H&R on my 03 Accord and agree the ride is awful. Changed them out for T-Techs and it was 10x better.

I think the biggest drop for our cars is the Megan Racing kit for the 03-07 Accord V6 Sedan.
