you would need low offset wheels to be flush. but idk what offset wheel is. i just know they are wide wheels like 16x8 would be good for flushing integra haha

hit up mitch (thenoxus1) for the parts. on my teg i have koni yellow shocks and koni ground control coilover sleeves. the ride is firm but being lowered between 2 and 2.5" the ride is really good, i highly recommend them

no that wont be flush, i think tein s techs will get you the lowest spring wise...cheap and good dont go well together! search the forums..IMO springs on stock struts isnt a good idea, especially if they have a lot of miles on them. If so, youd have to replace them, which would bring you close to the price of form and function coilovers...ive heard good things correct me if im wrong

Wheel offset is a measure of how far from the center of the wheel the hub connects to the wheel, thus allowing the wheel to either sit farther in or out. An offset of 0 means that the hub connects to the wheel at the center (the spokes of the wheel are recessed to the middle of the wheel), a high offset brings the spokes towards the outside (stock wheels have a high offset) a low offset brings the spokes closer to the center (allowing the wheel lip and tire to sit farther out making it appear flush)but idk what offset wheel is
OP: Lowering your car is not as simple as putting the springs on.
The best springs to get would probably be coilover sleeves since the height is adjustable, but I have heard good things about the Tein S-tec.
The stock struts are made for stock ride height and they are not the best for lowering, however coilover sleeves will not work on them. Most aftermarket struts are good (I recommend Koni, but Eibach, Blisten, and Tockio are all great) but you have to pay for them, and the lowering springs wont work on them...don't buy any poor quality cheap stuff or you'll regret it when the ride is absolute garbage and they break a month later.
A set of coilovers would be best since they include both the adjustable springs and a strut, and they are already put together.
After you get lowered, you need to have an alignment to keep your tires from abnormal wear. Also a camber kit is recommended but not required, which adjusts the angle that your tires make contact with the ground
