I have an 02 Honda Civic EX with 96,000 on it, I'm putting lowering springs on, what
else do I need(susp wise) I want to get a set of lowering springs to drop it about an inch and 3/4. I'm thinking Eibach, what else do I need to change out? Is it necessary to get sport shocks and struts? If I just put the lowering springs on the stock parts will that cause excessive extra wear? Please help.

Yes you do want to up grade your struts/shocks when you put lowering springs on. Stock springs cannot handle the drop and will go bad quickly. Get the shocks and springs and change them together. I'd advise if you can afford it, look into some strut braces and/or sway bars. helps with stiffening up ride and handling... it's a world of a difference.

The shocks are about due for a change out anyways , so i would reccommend they be replaced . If there is any life left in your stock shocks they will not last long at all and will defeat the purpose of lowering the car (better handling) .

yes, you should invest in some aftermarket struts, most aftermarket spring applications recommend it. sway bars are always a good investment as well. also you can look into getting an upper front strut bar, all these will also improve the feel of the car.

+1 for no ebay crap, but also you will need a camber kit, or else you will wear out the inside of you tire too quickly. Secondly you probably should upgrade you shocks as well.
