Default How low will my civic be if I remove the springs?

I want to have the lowest car in town, so I'll be all that you know dudes... so I had this revelation, like God came to me in this awsume dream and all ( I even think I **** my pants a little) and he said "Remove your springs son..." So can I do that?

Or would it be lower if I turn them upside down to make them negative springs so to say... like minus height....?

This low




Can not be driven like that, the tires hit the inner fenders and are pressed against them with so much force that they will not roll at all.

You are close to being banned, your comments lead me to think you are here spamming so speak up for yourself if you are not doing that other wise slamming a civic or any other car is stupid.

Oh, common guys, you can't chop the head of a dude just because he's a n00b and don't know much about cars yet... But I'm here to learn guys, so no need to feel hostile about it.[sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

umm dont wanna sound mean or evil but you are an idoit to even ask this question or should i say a retard... springs/coilovers are made for a reason, to make the car move and have clearence space so the wheels can turn, without them its like trying to ride a bike with no tires, pedal all you want you'll still look like a dumbass
