I had a set on stock shocks that the previous owner had put on. I was dropped about 2". Handling was great. Ride quality was great. BUT...they squeeked like hell on every bump. I sprayed the hell out of every moving suspension part and couldn't get the squeeks to go away.

I can't honestly blame it strictly on the springs, but the service manager at the honda dealer blamed them. He mentioned that he'd never seen a lowered s2k that didn't squeek.

dude, you dropped it 2" on stock shocks. what do you expect?

the comptech springs are great, but a bit overpriced. their spring rates are very close to that of the stock '00-01 rates.

i'd personally go with ground controls. go with 340/380 front and rear.

good luck,
