Question on DropZone coils
So, I ordered the 1.8/1.5 DropZone coils and installed them yesterday. Brought the car down to the top of the tire. Now my question is, has anyone else installed these springs on their fit? It seems like when I'm going over bumps or rough road it is making a noise in the rear like the spring is hitting/vibrating in the lower cup.

Turns out the coil was rubbing on the lower cup. So, I flipped them around and the noise is no more. It's kind of suprising but it doesn't ride much different from stock. I was expecting a stiff and boucey ride but it's pretty smooth. The front has settled since yesterday and is now tucking tread, the rear will have to settle again since I just pulled them a few minutes ago, but are still at top of tire. I'll post some pics tomorrow.

Be prepared to blow your shocks, if they're still the original stock units. They may last longer than I'm used to (I'm used to 90-93 Accords), but stock shocks aren't valved for a drop and a higher spring rate. They will not respond properly, and they will wear out faster.
Since you have a GD, you should be able to find upgrade options. I don't have that option yet with my GE, sadly.
