Lowring DC2 Vti-r 1998 King Springs Super Low Vs Low

[charliebrown]

^bro those could pass for lows even... definetely not ultra lows unless it's like two ultralow springs stuck together lol

[dougie_504]

Yeah only looks 1-2cm lower than 'Lows' IMO.

[Lukey]

its about 2.5-3"

K-block bro, here's some showing the difference between stock and lows. Lukey obviously got jibbed lol hope this helps you make up your mind. Clearly every car is different but should be the same if you kept same rolling diameter as stock

Side view





Wheel fender gap





Showing ground clearance (sorta)



No issues whatsoever. Camber is 1-1.5 degrees on my report

[DC2-PWR]

Your car looks real clean bro

Far out stock height looks retarded

[funk99]

looks tight nam.
you on the legal limit?

[charliebrown]

^Yeah all parts except the mudflaps are 100+mm

[K-BLOCK]

hey guys finally got my dc2 on lows and its a perfect fit no scrubbin only over high humps, so happy with result now im looking to ge wheels for the car, only problem is do i go 15's or 16's? lol thats another story

15s or 16s dont matter man. you dont scrub on lows even with 17s as long as it's not wider than 7" and your tyres aren't wider than 205

[dougie_504]

If you get 7" width just make sure you get at least +35 offset, preferably +38 or +40 IMO = less scrub on the outside.

I don't know much about lowering, but I'm looking to drop a little bit. Not much, just enough to fill the arches up a little more than stock.

I'm tossing up whether to get 16" or 17" wheels. Looks and comfort are important, less so performance. I'm on a budget. Would a set of 'low' King Springs and some 17" wheels be the way to go?

How much will a new set of springs cost me? And I hear a lot about Kings sagging after 6 months; are other brands (Aurora?) a better bet? I imagine that, as I'm not looking at tiny margins between my wheels and arches to begin with, a little bit of sag won't cause me any issues anyway?

Cheers.

I posted in response to your question in the other thread but i'll see if i can help with your other concerns.

If you're not after performance then 17s imo, doesn't look oversized on the integra as much as the civic. Tyres are fkn expensive though. Since you seem to be quite reasonable and just don't want to be fully slammed sik or w/e, i recommend lows. It's softer than stock, you gotta go slower on speedhumps, don't go over traintracks after you eat cos your food will come back out etc

New springs + installation is... 400 perhaps if you can get a shop to do you a deal. Sagging is so little that you won't even notice it and it's not enough to put out your camber/toe by enough to justify getting a new alignment after a few months.
