Those are all kind of "off brands" (No offense to anyone who has them.)

Save your money and get a good kit like H&R or Eibach.

just my $.02

I am probably not even going to keep the car so i am just lowering it for a while until I sell the car so I don't have to roll up on stilts and all of these springs are cheap, then my friend with a 97 RS is going to buy all my parts.I made the decison to sell the car because it is lacking in one thing that all of my Hondas/Acuras have had.REFINEMENT.I give the Eclipse props in that it looks good and it is something unusual in the world of import tuning,but the motor and tranny lack refinement and good engineeering.The motor sounds like shit when revved out (alternator whine, etc.), the belt system had problems, the clutch feels like total poo, everything rattles and vibrates, and shit breaks all the time.I know it's not just my car either becasue I have driven them with less then 20k (99 GS) and it was the same deal.Iv'e had my car for three months and i am very dissapointed with it.I MISS MY INTEGRA!!!!!!!!!!
