Woo so finally lowering my car. I don't got the cash for Coilovers because Im in college so Im getting Tein S-Tech Lowering Springs since they are ok on stock Struts. Only a 1.7 rear and 1.9 inch lower, but still will look 100% better for sure. Only $160 on ebay shipped and ill get the car aligned right away.

Im worried about winter though since our Winter's in Erie are brutal.

 

why are you worrying about worrying over winter on tein s-techs? civics are quite low as it is already. s-techs won't lower it too much where you need to worry IMO. just drop it either that or keep saving and get adjustable coilovers.

 

Well Im selling the car to a friend next spring around April or May so I won't have the money, by then. I just wanna know if the drop the S-Tech's will give me will look a lot better, I know the car won't be anywhere near slammed but I hope better?

 

s-techs are better than stock height of course. For mines i get about 1.5 to a little less than 2 finger wheel gap

 

Thats not bad at all so your ride is on Tein's?

 

They sell a lot of fake S techs on eBay, careful

^Thanks for the heads up Nike, but these seem legit are they? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TEIN-...Q5fAccessories

 

Dude, don't get s-techs... If you're selling the car in the spring anyway, why would you spend ANY money on it unneccesarily? Just keep it in good working order, change the oil, keep up on routine maintence, and call it a day.


also, moved to the correct section.

 

Cut the springs 3" using a torch!!!!

Oh, wait, I don't think you were around for that thread
