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 ...

Hi!, greetings from Spain!
I am considering a subtle lowering of my car with OEM SI springs and I found your thread.
Can I ask you some questions???
Where did you get the OEM SI springs?
One year after the installation, what are your measurements? .... Is rear height still the same or has it also droped 1 cm?
I have considered Eibach springs but I think my car Will scratch the ground on the ramp down to my parking 😅
Im running 19" wheel and lowering will make It look better.
Many thanks!

Hi I recently sold the Si springs to teletxt .
I installed ST X coilovers.As far as I measured the rear was the same height or it might have dropped 5mm max .The front drops 15mm .
I bought these springs used from 360glitch a long time ago and they where still perfect when I removed them.

You can buy Si springs from hondapartsnow.com. They ships worldwide. Second option is you can order from your local Honda dealer.

Puede comprar resortes Si en hondapartsnow.com. Hacen envíos a todo el mundo. La segunda opción es que puede realizar el pedido en su concesionario Honda local.
