At what point would you need these. Is it a good idea for most drops?. Is anyone using them, possibly 8th gen civics?
Roll center adjusters?

buddy club and a few other companies made them for the 8th gen. I haven't heard anyone say they've tried them on the 9th though.

^^ I did read that. Its what sparked my curiosity regarding adjusters.
So what i gather is its beneficial even with a mild drop.

I'd say so. There's a lot of mods that ppl will do, but just do the basics without doing what it takes to make for a complete mod.
It kind of left up to money, and if a half mod will do ok, it's really what you think you want at the end of the day.

To be more pacific(less PC), If you want to lower your car "AND" also have good handling, I'd want to add the "RCA".

I wonder if the 8th gen ones will fit 9th?? I like the idea of having the suspension done right.

I don't think they will. The part numbers are very very similar.... it might be worth a shot. The new ones are cheaper than the old ones too.
08 Si ball joints are listed separately as R and L but the new 2012/13 I compared part numbers to are just one part number for both, hence I don't think they will be interchangeable.
8th gen ball joints:
08 Si R side Ball Joint: 51220-SNA-A03
08 Si L side Ball Joint: 51230-SNA-A03
9th gen ball joints:
2012 Si Ball Joint: 51220-TR0-A01
2013 Si Ball Joint: 51220-TR0-A01
