the sports suck ass..dont get them......you will have wheel gap....i know noone really likes coilovers anymore but then you can adjust your ride height and wont be stuck with springs that slam you car to the ground.....one time i cut my stock springs on my civic..i cut a little too much off...i couldent drive my car anywhare bc it was so slammed.......lol..but the ride is great with cut stock springs....i know im ghetto..but thats when i was bored..lol

first of all you gotta think of your size rims, size tires, and if there are gonna be any add ons like front lip and sideskirts, i have H&R SPORTS springs and i have no wheel gap, 16" c8's wrapped in 205/45/16 along with the wings west add ons. you can clicky on the link in my sig for pics. the car isn't slammed but its low enuff. however with 17's the car would be nicely slammed.

so it all depends on what you're gonna do to the car..... rims, tires, add ons

man i say fuck it... since your car is gonna be stock for a while and no lip, get race.... what do you gotta worry about? you dont have a lip or headers, jus dont bottom out and crack your oil pan. and then maybe later on you can invest in some adjustable shocks/struts if you decide to raise it up.
