Default neuspeed vs h&r

I'm tryin' to decide what springs to get, its between the neuspeed sport springs and the h&r sport springs. Can you guys give me your opinions/experiences with either of them? I think I'm also gonna get the kyb agx struts, if not, I'm not gonna upgrade my shocks at this time... not enough money.

Don't blame you, I gonna throw my springs on stock struts too...no money. And tax returns are going toward some rims

But anyways, I went with Neuspeed, I heard they are very good. Mine should be arriving soon. Can't wait.

I think its the other way around. H&R springs are stiffer than Neuspeed, sport springs.

Spring Rates,
For your car model, 96-00 EX its 165F/80R progressive
H&R soft sport(1.5F,1.75R) ==> 330F/280R progressive.
Neuspeed sport( 1.5F,1.75R) ==> 280F/180R progressive.

You can see that Neuspeed springs are much softer than H&R.

i have h/r sport springs on stock struts. i like them a lot but i guess they could be about an inch lower. i'm glad that the front lowered more than the rear because before it looked like i was driving a clown car with 17 clowns lowering the back down while my little d15 didn't way the front down at all! over all, i'm really impressed - they're my first lowering springs. good quality in my mind. good luck
