Ride Height Drop
Designed to provide an aggressive street stance while maintaining practical suspension travel.
| Position | Ride Height Drop |
|---|---|
| Front | 2.0 inches |
| Rear | 2.0 inches |
The even front and rear drop significantly reduces factory wheel gap while lowering the Civic’s center of gravity for improved handling and a cleaner appearance.
Progressive Spring Technology
TruHart uses a progressive-rate spring design that offers approximately 20% more stiffness than OEM springs. This provides comfortable ride quality during everyday driving while increasing spring resistance during hard cornering and braking.
Benefits include:
- Improved suspension response
- Reduced body roll
- Better steering feel
- Increased cornering confidence
- Comfortable daily driving
- Improved road holding
Premium 55 Chrome Silicon Spring Steel
Each TruHart spring is manufactured from premium 55 chrome silicon spring steel, providing excellent fatigue resistance and long-term durability.
Construction features include:
- Cold-wound 55 chrome silicon spring steel
- Precision-manufactured spring coils
- ISO 9001 certified production
- TÜV-approved manufacturing facility
- Corrosion-resistant finish
- Engineered to exceed OE standards
The advanced material helps resist premature sagging while maintaining consistent ride height over years of use.

Performance benefits include:

- Controlled ride quality
