id say coilovers, cuz then you can have whatever drop you want. i currently have Megan Racing Regular coilovers with tokico illuminas, but im buying skunk2 coilovers very shortly.
I heard the skunk2's are no good?

I said prokits because you can defineatly get away with no camber kit and they ride well. H&r sports are nice, But your rear camber will probably be further than you want out of spec. I don't like the way they ride though, much more harsh than prokits for a slightly bigger drop. And neuspeed springs are h&r's unless something has changed.

if you can spend a little more money.. ground control coilovers and tokico illuminas would be nice

but out of the choices listed i would go with either Neuspeed or Teins... there were a few 6th gen accords with Eibach prokits that had some very uneven drops.. and i dont know much about skunk2's springs

The Tein springs don't drop you 2.1 / 2.7 The Tein site says the drop is less than 2 inches, and the Ebay retailers list it closer to 1.7 drop... which is why I'm voting Tein. I plan on going Tein when money permits.... ^^^ is right, there are some cars with Pro-Kits that look a tad bit goofy IMO.

Pro Kit, moderate drop, doesn't require much money to buy and maintain. Plus, if you do lots of driving especially w/ passengers, the ride is not too low or stiff. Search for posts of ride drops and see what you like. I have the Eibach Pro Kit with 18" 5zigen Copse. There is about only a 2 finger gap. It is pretty low if you have stock 15" or similar rims.

Well I've got my Tein S-Techs and KYB GR2 shocks (courtesy NASOHC, thanks mate!) on the way, so I'll give you my opinion of the ride quality in a month or so when I can afford the TL rear swaybar and the shop cost.

tein are liars the drop is way not low enough to even look lowered to me. neuspeed will give you a clean drop, i had them on my car before major camber to let you know. but it was when i first got my car so could be my driving, skunk2 sucks a$$, i had skunk2 coil sleeves, thumbs down for them. eibach, all i hear are good things from eibach, plus i have ground control. get ground control you wont be disappointed
