Hi guys,

I own a honda civic fd and currently have stock springs on. I want to buy an aftermarket one with a 1.6inch drop. Will i need to modify anything else to it? (ie - guard work etc) Tyres are 215/45/R17 Thanks!

If your rocking on stockies then you shouldn't need any guard work or anything.

cool - but we dont know what sort of wheels you have - are they stretched on a 10in rim? with negative offset??

almost any size wheel will fit unless massively wide so that it scrapes the wheel well when turning.

Thanks guys!

that much drop would have no real adverse effect
