update: made a 1/2" aluminum spacer to raise the car up front, and most of the vibration went away.
Surely there has to be another fix to this problem. I refuse to raise my car because it looks awful at anything near stock ride height.

Seriously lol.
Someone mentioned a spacer for the axle to put it back into its "happy spot." Seems like that's what was done on the german forum along with a spring (not sure what the spring does??)...
Oh, and, interesting about the camber. What sort of camber are you running to help out with the vibration.
I wouldn't recommend anyone else trying it, normally. I did it because the car sat too low, even with it at max height, and my wheel/tire combo would rub. I guess I forgot to mention that, lol. Half inch higher makes it sit perfect (in my case). Wheel gap is just about zero (not tucked anymore). I posted mainly to illustrate that the height of the car affects the problem, and not something to do with the installation. There did seem to be an extreme angle on the driveshaft at the previous height.

i put H&R springs on probably 10-12000 miles ago... I cant say when I stopped noticing exactly, but I dont feel the vibrations I felt after I put them on...
Amazing. Honda has been building suspensions that can take 2 inch drops without any issue for years. No vibrations, no funny torque band issues. Of course, their speedometer works too. To beat on them a tad, you HAD to lower the RSX to keep the rear outside tire from going positive camber in a corner.
