Lowering: what springs will work with OEM struts?
guys,
If I wanted to use my OEM struts and just lower the car with springs (tons of choices out there), what would be the best combo for OEM struts and springs which will also allow me to have a 2 finger gap all around. I will be riding with 18" wheels tires are going to be 245/35/18 and 215/40/18.
I'm not a weekend track rat nor do I drive like a bat out of hell on the streets. Just want a semi comfortable ride.

.08 inch drop, nice spring rates (not harsh at all) a little firmer than stock. I might be selling my setup, I've been eying a few coilovers that I'd like to have. I'm on stock shocks w/ 30k Let me know if you're interested.

do you need a camber kit for the s2k? i just got mine and i used to have a dc5 and had to purchase camber arms for it.

The S2000 has factory camber adjustments.
i know its a better idea to upgrade to coilovers, but im also interested in a minor drop till then, ive heard that lowering the car will hurt it more than make it handle better because the suspension is set perfectly from honda. can anyone confirm this?

But that doesn't mean it has no room for improvements.
The suspension can be tweaked for more track performance at the cost of comfort.
Slamming the car like 2" on stock shocks, however, will compromise the handling.
Again, just my $0.02
