hi
i have a civic 1991 import.
i have just fitted some 16/45/205 alloys and i want to lower it.
how low can i go without having a problem with the arches??
cheers people

 

Ooo, I will be in the same situation soon, so yeah...how low can you go on 16s?

Ashbar, out of curiosity is your car a hatchback?

 

yea bud its a 3 door hatchback

 

Assuming the overall wheel/tire diameter is the same, you should be able to drop it 1.75, MAYBE 2" (probably not, though) depending on what springs/dampers/coilovers you get.

 

Since this topic is up right now I might as well ask...
I'm planning on the Eibach Prokit for my 02 ex. Should only drop an inch (according to Eibach). Is it necessary to get rear control arms with the camber kit? Not replacing the shocks and struts just yet but will be shortly.
