So yesterday i finally installed my OEM si springs onto my EDM Civic sedan 1.5t elegance.I took measurements before and after and so far the front lowered 15mm and the rear Stayed the same.
Before on the OEM springs the car was higher in the front then in the rear .This always seemed weird to me and now it is the same height overall.
I measured the height of the center of the wheel Cap up to the wheel arch.
First impression of the springs are they're much more stable but i haven't got the chance to properly test them cause it rains now.
Also couldn't take pictures yet because of the rain,but i will update here when i do.
I also took measurements of the SI springs and the oem springs:
Si springs
Front length =280mm
Rear Length = 285mm
Oem EDM Sedan
Front Length = 310mm
Rear Length = 305mm
First 2 measurement pictures was stock height,afterwords the front dropped 15mm (68cm to 66.5cm) and the rear stayed the same.
The suspension is still very comfy but is a more stiff in corners.I'm used to noticing a bigger difference from my previous car which was more like a go cart in the end.Ps: I also painted the calipers while i was at it, they allready starting to rust after 3 years ...
