how many inches is it dropped?
alright,so i've been thinking,if theres like a chart or somethin,where you can get a ruler,and measure how many inches off the ground the civic is,and the chart telling you how many inches it's dropped/lowered?know what i mean?
measure the inches between the civic,right under the door,right by where the lil stock,black lip thing is,from the ground...am i making sense?lol.I've just been wondering,the guy who lowered my ride said it's 2.5 in the front,and 3 in the back,but i've just been wanting to find out if it's true,or just random numbers he gave.lol.thanks to whoever answers me

haha nah,no camber kit,it doesnt look like its squatting or anything,i got it done about or almost a month ago,and havent noticed any pulls or anything like that,it pulls a lil to the right,but it was like that before it got lowered.i'll take it to a shop to get it aligned after i get new struts.
here are some pictures.its on 185-60-14's incase you're wondering.thanks

looks like ya got alittle squate in the rear... take a shot from the back of the car going along the side.... that will easily show your rear geting ready to take a dump 
but looks like ruffly 2.25 inch drop to me.
and trust me.... if ya just lowered the car get it aligned! alittle toe will eat your tires sideways!
think about it whats cheaper? a 50dollar alignment or 400+bucks for new tires!!!!!! my friends trashed 2 sets of GOOD TIRES after lowering his car and not geting a alignment.... but FINALY he got a new alignment and some new tires AGAIN. i guess after the 2nd set of tires he finaly maned up and got a alignment! a alignment is to cheap for you not to get one! dont worry about camber to much BUT "TOE" is what will eat your tires up like candy!

thanks for the advice,i'll try taking a pic of the rear and front wheels.yeah,i gotta get it aligned,ill do it after i get new shocks though?hopefully soon lol.
i got the ruler this morning,and put it right aside the car and the ground,marks a lil over 6 inches off the ground,somethin like that
