Features
- Spring Rate: Front Spring rate: 10 kg/mm (556 in/lbs) & Spring rate Rear 6 kg/mm (336 in/lbs) with spring preload: 7-10 mm. Spring length Front: 200mm & Spring length Rear: 140mm; Coilover overall length Front: 546mm - 669mm & Coilover overall length Rear: 378mm - 463mm
- Twin-tube Structure: Compared to mono-tube construction, the twin-tube has a longer stroke and higher height adjustability, and they will give you a more comfortable riding experience by reducing the pressure on the joints and also minimizing friction, and ensuring sufficient travel with less effort.
- Functionality: Enhance steering performance and prevent cornering understeer and oversteer. Reduce cornering roll and improve braking performance, leading to shorter braking distances and increased driving safety. The coilover struts are easy to install with the proper tools.

Fitment:

10/2000-04/2006 HONDA CIVIC VII Saloon 4-door sedan (ES, ET)
2000-2006 Honda Civic VII EM2/ES/ET Coilovers FAQ
Q1: Will these coilovers fit my 2000-2006 Honda Civic?
A1: These Honda Civic VII coilovers fit the 2-door EM2 Coupe produced from February 2001 through December 2005 and the 4-door ES/ET Saloon or Sedan produced from October 2000 through April 2006. Because 2000 and 2006 are partial-year applications, confirm your chassis code and production date before ordering.
Q2: Do these coilovers fit a 2002 Honda Civic LX or EX?
A2: A 2002 Honda Civic LX or EX may fit if it uses the compatible EM2 Coupe or ES-series Sedan chassis listed on the product page. Buyers searching for 2002 Honda Civic LX coilovers or 2002 Honda Civic EX coilovers should verify the chassis code rather than relying on the trim name alone.
Q3: Will these fit a 2001, 2003, 2004, or 2005 Honda Civic?
A3: Yes, compatible 2001-2005 Civic VII EM2, ES, and ET applications fall within the listed fitment dates. Confirm whether your car is the 2-door EM2 Coupe or 4-door ES/ET Sedan and check for any previous suspension conversions before purchase.
Q4: Will these coilovers fit a 2006 Honda Civic?
A4: Fitment is limited to compatible Civic VII ES/ET Sedan models produced through April 2006. Do not assume that every 2006 Honda Civic uses the same suspension, because the eighth-generation Civic was also introduced for the 2006 model year; verify the chassis code before ordering.
Q5: Will these coilovers fit a 1998 or 2000 Honda Civic?
A5: They are not listed for a 1998 Honda Civic, which belongs to an earlier platform and requires a different coilover kit. A 2000 model may fit only if it is an ES/ET Civic VII Sedan produced from October 2000 onward, so chassis verification is essential.
Q6: Are these compatible with both the EM2 Coupe and ES/ET Sedan?
A6: Yes. The listed applications include the 2-door Honda Civic VII EM2 Coupe and the 4-door ES/ET Saloon or Sedan. The product page does not list hatchback chassis such as the EP3, so hatchback owners should not assume compatibility.
Q7: What is included in this Honda Civic suspension kit?
A7: The package includes 2 front coilovers, 2 rear coilovers, and 2 stainless steel adjustment wrenches. This provides a complete front and rear suspension kit rather than a single replacement shock, spring, or strut.
Q8: How much can these Honda Civic coilovers lower the car?
A8: The ride height is adjustable from approximately 1 inch to 4 inches lower than the original height. A moderate 1-inch to 2-inch drop is generally more practical for daily driving, while a larger drop requires closer attention to ground clearance, suspension geometry, and tire fitment.
Q9: Do these Civic VII coilovers have adjustable damping?
A9: No. The product specification table lists damping as non-adjustable, although ride height and spring preload can be adjusted. The twin-tube shock design is intended to provide sufficient suspension travel and a more street-friendly response than an extremely rigid track-only setup.
Q10: Are these EM2 coilovers suitable for daily driving?
A10: Yes, the product page describes them as suitable for daily driving, occasional autocross, and occasional track use. For a daily-driven Civic, avoid an excessively low ride height and make sure the springs retain adequate travel over potholes, speed bumps, and uneven roads.
Q11: What spring rates do these 7th-gen Civic coilovers use?
A11: The front spring rate is 10 kg/mm, approximately 556 lbs/in, and the rear spring rate is 6 kg/mm, approximately 336 lbs/in. This setup will feel firmer and more responsive than worn factory suspension while helping reduce body roll during cornering.
Q12: Do these Honda Civic coilovers include camber plates?
A12: Yes. The front coilovers use pillow ball top mounts with camber plates, while the rear coilovers use standard rubber top mounts. The front camber plates provide additional adjustment after lowering, but the car still requires a professional alignment.
Q13: Will I need an alignment or additional suspension parts after installation?
A13: A professional four-wheel alignment is strongly recommended after installation and after any major ride-height change. If an EM2, ES, or ET Civic is lowered aggressively and the factory adjustment range cannot correct camber or toe, adjustable rear control arms, toe components, or tie-rod-related parts may also be required.
Q14: Will these coilovers cause tire rubbing or uneven tire wear?
A14: Tire rubbing depends on ride height, wheel width, wheel offset, tire size, camber, and fender clearance. Uneven tire wear is more likely when the car is lowered without correcting toe and camber, so choose a practical ride height and complete an alignment after installation.
Q15: Can I install these Flashark coilovers myself?
A15: An experienced DIY installer with suitable lifting equipment and suspension tools may complete the installation, but no instructions are included and professional installation is recommended. Set the spring preload within the listed 7-10 mm range, torque all hardware correctly, and complete an alignment before normal driving; the kit also includes a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
