I didn't know Skunk2 made springs, either. I had their coilover sleeves on my Prelude and I didn't like them. They were noisy and bouncy. I guess they make some higher end stuff, too, though.

I thought their focus was on Honda... but sure enough, they have them listed. It looks like a 1.5" drop.

^^^ word same. the drop height is medium, which i'm interested in. given the skunk2 is pretty renowned for their honda tuning, i hope their springs for the xB come out well ...

The ride feels good, for me anyways. It's actually pretty smooth. The handling is improved as well. I'm happy with these springs. I'm planning to upgrading to maybe TRD shocks down the line too and then some sway bars to make it handle even better.

The springs actually settled a little more, I took this picture right after the install. I'll try and snap some new shots.
