Touring vs Sport vs Si suspension interchangeably

This is a very easy, inexpensive mod that really changes the feel of the car.
The rear end doesn’t feel like wants to roll over anymore in sharp corners.
I’m still on the fence about switching to Si springs.

See, switching to Si springs sounds like a solid idea. There has to be a simple procedure published somewhere on how to do this.

Swapping to SI springs would be the same procedure as swapping over to aftermarket springs.

I think most aftermarket springs don't require a spring compressor for installation.

I might have some 2022 si springs with only 5k miles you can have if I end up keeping the ones I’m testing for a company rn. Just pay for shipping.

Yea, to reinstall the SI spring they would need the compressor. I meant in terms of removing the stock springs. Same process

So, we're only talking about swapping the springs from Si strut?

I'm guessing the spring rate on sports are the same as EX, Lx, and Touring?

So his car is a 2020 hatchback

Still a 10th gen, right?

Yes. 10th gen is (NA models) 2016-2021

I'd have to take a look but I might have my SI RSB in my closet somewhere. Not sure what a new one goes for but I would definitely sell mine for less (has around 8k miles on it).
I'll check this weekend.

Keep me posted on this. ahparts.com has a 2017 Si RSB for $40, but the car has 138XXX miles

I have an EUDM 1.5T sport hatch with standard suspension.
I have SI springs + Accord Endlinks + Si rear sway bar installed.
Absolutely worth it.

I saw it posted earlier but I just wanna plug the Whiteline Springs if you’re going to do Si ones for an upgraded feel. They have mild, and I do mean mild, drop. On 18s I’ve never scraped a thing. But they absolutely tighten the ride without adding any harshness. I have mine on stock struts and couldn’t be happier and this is after having a Civic with $$$ coilovers (HKS GT IV)
