Which Springs for EX Sedan

SO I am considering lowering my Sedan a little bit and was confused as to what springs will work with it. I know Ive seen some H&R Springs for the sedan. But I have read they really drop the car on its face.. Im seeing conflicting results for the Eiback prokit 4031.140 and the Sportlines. Do these fit the Sedan??

Don't forget that Honda makes springs and dampers specifically for the 8th gen Civics: Their HFP suspension kit (Honda Factory Performance). It's something like $600 from College Hills Honda. Drops the Civic an inch and firms things up.

Can't really go wrong with Honda-engineered stuff that's specifically made for your exact car, I feel. :-) There's an HFP kit for the sedan.
