DC springs on an EG

Does anyone know the difference in lowering height would be if I put 3rd gen integra springs on an 5th gen civic?

For example:

H&R Race spring for a EG drops it 2.5 F 2.25 R part# 51863-88
H&R Race spring for a DC drops it 2.0 F 1.75 R part# 51865-88

What I want is the more agressive spring rate of the Race spring, but I don't want to loose too much streetability by having a 2+ inch drop all around, so I want to mount the H&R Race springs for the DC on my EG.

Since the DC is heavier than the EG, the EG won't be as low as 2.0 F and 1.75 R, does anyone KNOW what ride height I can expect?

Please respond only to this post if you HAVE an answer, I don't need any more guesses.

is exactly right... you asked that no one respond, so no one responded.

I prefer no answer to an speculative answer!

But as an FYI to those who are curious about my speculation

0.5-0.75 is the variance
