Well after going through cheap coilovers and busting those stupid rear arm bolts, I finally got my new suspension stuff installed. The set up is Tokico Lowering springs (1.5 inches lower) and Tokico HP blue shocks all around. Here is a couple pics-- sorry they are kinda crappy, I just took them really quick to have a pic of the drop. Yes, I know I need wheels badly, lay off
Let me know what you guys think. I like the drop so far and its a nice compromise of ride quality and handling I think. Flame suit on

 

yea, some nice 15's or 16's will eat up that wheel gap, and the springs need to settle, so that will drop a little more too

 

No they won't. When you get larger rims, the tires are a lower profile so that the overall diameter is the same, otherwise your speedometer will be off. If anything, getting larger rims while keeping stock height seems to make the wheel gap seem even more dramatic.

 

if ya ask me it looks stock height!!! i dont understand why ppl waste money to lower there car and only lower it 1.5"!!! i have mine lowered 2.25 and it doesnt run/scrap on anything..


GO LOWER lol..

to each there own i guess

 

Well its not stock height. Its, uh, 1.5" lower.
Also, I didn't want to lower it too much. This is my daily driver so I wanted to keep close to stock height but gain some handling and make it look a little better. You would scrape on everything with 2.25" if you came out here to South Dakota, haha

 

haha i hear ya meng! i was just messin wit ya. i just love the way SLAMMED civics look

nice ride tho

 

that looks stock height to me. maybe this is because i just had some tokico springs and realized that they have the worst drop possible. they were supposedly a 1.75 drop all around but everybody and they mama knew it was only like an 1" drop. but everybody's different so hope you like it.

 

looking good
1.5 inch is a nice enough drop to make the car look a little more agressive without compromising gorund clearance

 

:werd: keeping ground clearance and daily drivability.

 

wow, that still does look like stock. I have about a 1.5" drop also and it looks quite a bit lower than that.
