Thanks everyone! I love the PSS coilovers. They're SLIGHTLY stiffer than stock in terms of ride quality - perfectly tolerable for a daily driver. Keep in mind the '06 suspension is fairly soft - the PSS rates are closer to CR rates. Handling is definitely improved..less body roll and the car feels more planted overall through turns. Feels a lot like my C5 Z06 did through high speed turns.

I wouldn't want anything stiffer for daily driving. I had Tein Flex coilovers on my '07 Civic Si and bent a few wheels because the suspension didn't have enough travel / was too stiff, so that's something that comes to mind. In the end, I'll take overall practicality over an extra second off my AutoX time 
This is coming from someone who's also had a heavily modded Camaro and Z06. At the end of the day, if you want to enjoy driving the car on the street, don't go balls to the wall with racing parts or you will regret it. Just something I've learned over the years, and that's why I chose Bilstein over all else.

As of now, I ONLY drive on the street so I want a good reliable coilover. Sounds like this is the ticket.

They're all bolt-on, ready to go and hub-centric. Got them from eBay seller "optionselects".

OEM front lip is coming for Christmas. In the meantime I'm thinking about dropping it another 1/2" or so.
Hey Matt, lookin good, are you using drive shaft spacers?
can anyone tell me if drive shaft spacers are needed at a 1 inch drop?
