Civic EG

i want my eg civic lowered, i have 17" wheels on at the mo. and my back box if a fair size. i was thinking 30/40mm but dont want to end up stuck on a speed bump . can any1 help me out, how far and whats the best value for money kit as im on a budget prob £200/250. (i want springs and shocks) ta. email me direct asap if you could .... hoter_stuf@hotmail.com id be greatful as im goin usc santa pod 08 this year. so in a bit of a rush.

You could go with a set of entry level coil overs. this will allow you to fine tune your ride height if you rub or scrape.

first of all cheers for the reply, but would that way not cost me alot, iv found a coilover kit on ebay £300 but my m8 sed if i go for cheap ones the'll more than likly corrode and crossthread. do you reckon 30 or 40 mm drop if i get springs and shocks

i just got some eibach sportlines and that dropped my hatch about 2 inches (50mm) so i think coils are your best bet. i know omni powers are around 650$, and they are pretty decent.

alright nice one ill look into it, i cant wait to go ultimate street car in august. and one else goin? iv waxd and polished my car and wheels ready a little advanced but im buzzin!

ditch those monster 17's, pick up some 15's get some skunk2 coil overs from jhp for about $560, springs are crap.

x2 ^ 17's are hard to lower a car on..I have 16's and my car isn't even that low and I'm going to switch to 15's soon so I can lower it more..cause when you have a bigger rim it's hard to lower and if so you have to camber the wheels a lot.. for example

^-my car..I had to camber a lot so the wheels would fit under the wells

so yeah I recommend getting smaller rims and getting coil overs..cause springs you can't adjust and coil overs you can..that's what I love about them..you can raise the car or slam it

go with the skunk2 pro-c full coilovers.........but if not skunk2 then go with coilovers. its way more fun to be able to adjust your ride hight and functional to.

I suggest Ksport Kontrol Pro. Thats what I have. They are great. True full coil over for $560. Im even getting them for my second hatch.

You may aswell remove the helper spring, its so compressed it wont be doing anything at all
