Lowering Ek onto 17's

Also wandering (as l had the same prob) not knowing how low. l didn't go that low, but now l've got issues with the rear left hand side guard rubbing only when l have a passener and my car isnt that low.
Has anyone had the guards lipped ? l'm thinking of getting mine done, but worried about the paint cracking.
Thanks

new suspension???

check your shocks and springs?
are you on stock shocks?

I'm on stock shockers, but put in King springs in recently. l think the rims are the wrong offset. The rims l bought were off a 97 Prelude.

I agree! Once you've driven a car with coilovers you'll understand why people rave on about them.
