now i just wish i had some Speedy 15"s....... :roll:
janeblaze: yeah insurance is a problem with me aswell =\
im plannin to drop mine about 2.5" but im also finkin about insurance
bah i mite jus go for 1.5" since i got an addon kit
Ive gone with King springs[/img] I had the springs in for about nearly 2 years. Shocks are still good and I love taking corners hard!
I got a pic but don;t know how to put it up. The car isn't super low but it's at a stage where it's sittin gnice enough. It takes a while for the springs to settle in.
yeah, jsut called insurance...
1.5 will do... or whatever 1/3 of the height....
any lower, they wont insure me.... not a matter of paying more, they just wont insure me.
as far as any other modifications, like an exhuast, which is waht i want also, they prolly wont allow it.... maybe .5" pipping bigger, but thats it... i dunno.
so, yeah but 1.5" is good enough for me, i mean of course lower is better, but getting rid of the gap between rubber and body, is DEFINATELY good enough... as i said earlier.
just a question, dunno if its stupid q or not, but if i just by springs and lower my accord by 2in (max) usin stock shocks, wen i get new shocks in a few mnths, can i still use those same springs?
coz i dun wanna have to buy new springs again.
any help is appreciated :P
don't think so.
Calvo: As long as you are happy with the springs there's nothing stopping you from reusing them.
dunt fink ull need new springs, if ur only changin shocks
shibby :P
I went with H&R sport springs, still using standard shocks... for the meantime I guess. They give a 1.75 drop up front and 1.5 back. Im happy with them, just wanted to get rid of the horrible 4x4 ride height and gap! Ride quality to me is good, almost like factory feel.. but most importantly, body roll and brake dive (is that the term) has significantly been reduced.

Pic was taken right after I got em installed, hopefully the springs settle more hehe
buy coilovers! it may cost but performace & road worthy...it last long too :)
nice man! thats what i want too, to get rid of the gap.....
tell us maybe after another 5000 kilimoters how the ride feels? still liek factory or what?... thanks man!
