Lowered the car yesterday on Tein S-Tech springs. Part # SKHH6-AUB00 . Install was a breeze. This was my second time lowering my '18 Civic hatchback Sport. Compared to the Godspeed springs and factory springs (Godspeed's ride comparable to factory, maybe a little stiffer in my opinion), the ride is slightly more aggressive. I can definitely tell the extra drop from the Tein's is having an effect on my OEM dampers. The ride is still extremely sporty, but I definitely now feel almost everything in the road. This is not a bad thing for me as I enjoy being as close to one with the car as possible. On the other hand, I'll more than likely be replacing my 33k mile OEM shocks/struts sooner than I would have with previous springs. I only found a handful of folks here that run the Tein's, and I'm surprised there aren't more running them. They are an excellent, high quality spring that I felt proud to install. Here are a few photos:

I'll align the vehicle as soon as possible. Will allow things to settle in for a few miles first.
