Suspension for my teg??

hey guy's
Ok i have a question regarding my suspension. I got pair of skunk 2 lowering springs last year for my 2000 integra (Suppose to drop 2" and 2.25").
Now my shocks are totally gone since past 4 months.
My rear is dropped alot more than the front. my rear tires are 2 inch inside the wheel wall. meanwhile front end has 2 inch gap between the tire and the fender.
and literally my car looks like ***.

is it because of the shocks????? or the skunk 2's??

do i need coilover's to lower it perfectly? so that i can atleast adjust the height?

any help

well, my first impression would be the springs are in the wrong end. ft in bk, bk in ft. if ur not sure, don't just go by how tall they are out of the car.

and most of the time, when u lower your can on stock honda struts, it will kill them, but your height prob is in the springs, not ur struts.

go get a set of performance struts for it, Tokico's work good with Hondas.
then play around with height, oh and coil overs make good looks but ride like ***.
