Swift.

Euro springs with 11/13mm spacers. Drives like stock. No scraping at speed bumps.
Still to soft when going hard into corners so upgrading to a stiffer front anti roll bar is advisable.

Euro. If you are doing this yourself(not difficult) you can always try both. Springs are not very expensive.

Do you know if the drop is different for manual transmission with the euro spec?

 

[matthew_conda]

I went with swift. The drop looks so nice

How is the ride quality? Do you scrape often with or without front lip?

 

[matthew_conda]

swift are noticeably stiffer than the euros. with euros you'll still be squatting and nose diving

if you've been debating for so long.. maybe adjustable springs like HKS?

so you would get swift over the euros?

 

[matthew_conda]

Great advice! Stiffer if you know what height and spring rate you want. Otherwise, adjustable would eliminate a lot of hassles down the rode, if/when other things are added to the car.

im thinking swift, and i dont want to spend the extra $500 just for adjustability yk, I would rather just get coilovers at that point.

not me. i'm on euros, along with an EOS artisan lip, absolutely terrible roads, track & autoX-- never broken it. on swift i'm sure i would've been on my third lip or so lol

Can’t say for sure but don’t see how there can be. The weight difference is what, 30 pounds? Maybe they’d be like .001 inches higher or something?

I went with Eibach US Springs on my 23 MT. Eibach Advertises them as having a similar drop rate to the Euros, I didn't measure since it didn't really matter to me, the part numbers are the same so who knows. I'm happy with how it turned out though/how they ride.

This is on stock wheels just after lowering:

This is on wider aftermarket wheels:

HKS. The height adjustment solves your height issues. You may be able to swap in springs (like most coilovers) if you feel a setup is to soft or stiff.

Not to forget corner balancing.. one needs a special scale for that which most people don’t have at home.. Height adjustability for just looks is for the Civic ric0r crowd…

This is the drop for the Euro spec with a manual. From the floor to the middle of the fender is a little under 26.5".
