I have a set of very low, very heavy EF springs here that will fit an EG/EK (dunno what you drive). They don't retain particualrly well though. LMK if you are interested.

This will let you lower the car to a 'full sick' ride height :lol:
This is a threaded sleeve setup.

EDIT: I'm not putting you down, but atleast doing it properly. That way you don't endanger yourself and others on the road.
Just out of curiosity, what are the rims you have on now, and what will be the size of the 17" rubber you will have on your rims? It may be the case that the new wheels and the current ones will be barely different, and you may not need new springs
EDIT: what does it say on the current tyre sidewalls eg 195/60 R15 for example, and have you considered what width and profile the 17" rubber would be on the new rims
not only is it highly unsafe, but it is ilegal (but wasn't these days?) and it will void your insurance upon assessment!
go to www.k-mac.com.au and get some custom made, itll cost you no more then $400 shipped to your door. they will custom make to any height for ANY car!
dont ever cut springs!
the wheels are got on are just the stock civic wheel and i havent changed the tyres since i got the car..and about the size on the rubber when i get the rims im not sure im been looking at rims and tyres usually come with it so just standard i gues or low profile
well i dont know what the standard rubber is, but you should easily be able to get a 17" rim and tyre combo that doesnt change the rolling diameter, and so will not raise the car at all
Ye overall diameter should change only slightly, its negligible, i had worked out that with 100km/h on my speedo I would actually be travelling at 101km/h or something silly like that (that is, if my speedo is correct in the first place).
What I think happens though is that larger wheels/lower profile tyres accentuate wheel gap.
just a quick q, would it be cheaper to buy them and fit them urself and then bring in for alignment, or let them fit and align?
coz wouldnt u maybe beable to work out a deal or sumfin??
just wonderin, coz if ur gonna have to fork out a bit to get it aligned, u might aswell pay a little more and get them to fit it aswell.
They're fun to fit, and quite easy.
I'd give it a go if you are at all technically inclined. Good bonding time with the car.
