Last spring I lowered my civic with just Skunk2 lowering springs. I'm tired of the bumpiness and would like to purchase a good set of coil overs to bring back that smooth less bumpy factory kinda feel. I'm just torn on what exactly to buy and I was hoping to get some input from the community here.

Money isn't an issue. As long as the suspension improves and I get more of a factory feel ill be happy.

coil overs dont really feel like factory suspension either though, they can be bumpy too
do you have a coupe? maybe the HFP factory suspension upgrade would be something youd like?

Any coils are going to increase your spring rate which will produce what you are referring to as a bumpy feel. The factory springs are a progressive spring rate which helps the car feel smooth over bumps. Almost all of the aftermarket springs I can think of are linear which is better suited for performance driving and predictability.

Tein is pretty well known to have softer/more comfortable spring rates. Their coilovers use twin tube shocks too which also help
