don't do it man. don't do coilover, they r way to damn stiff...your ride is gonna suck. I had "street" coilover on my EG civic hatch and the ride got aweful...I got rid of it and got H&R sport springs and Bilstein shocks instead...ride was so much better....loved it!

After re-reading this a few times I think you might be confused. Your car is already lowered so I assume it is on lowered springs. If you need a new shock, just get new performance shocks made for a lowered vehicle. If you were to get coilovers, you would then be trashing the lowered springs you already have. Coil - over = spring over shock (one unit)

whatever you do if u need new shocks don't get tokico blues
, they are way toooo soft they make for a goood ride but on a lowerd car it makes for poor performance handeling , and a nice bounce (which means a horrible smash on bumps, driveways, and speedbumps)
I have espelir ASDs and tokico blues and hate everything about the blues, but do your research and you might find them suitable for your setup, and your goals
