Product Description

H&R 51865 Sport Lowering Springs are engineered for **1996-2000 Honda Civic** models (EK platform), including CX, DX, EX, HX, LX, Si, and GX trims in both 2-door and 4-door configurations. These sport springs lower the vehicle approximately **1.75 inches in the front** and **1.5 inches in the rear**, which helps reduce the center of gravity, improve stability and cornering response, and decrease body roll compared with the factory suspension. The progressive spring rate design also enhances overall vehicle dynamics while maintaining a comfortable ride quality suitable for everyday driving.

Made in Germany from high-strength 54SiCr6 spring steel and finished with shot-peening and stress-relief processes, these H&R Sport Springs are built for durability and consistent performance. In addition to improved handling, the lowered stance gives the Civic a more aggressive appearance with a reduced fender gap. The set includes four springs for front and rear suspension and is compatible with many OEM shocks and a wide range of aftermarket dampers, making this kit an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking both performance and visual improvement without upgrading to a full coilover system.
