how big of a drop is 1.9" front and 1.7" back? does anyone have about that much of a drop? any pics? thanks

 

look up cars with the Tein S-Techs, thats about the drop they give, little lower but u'll get the idea.

 

here's a coupe okay pictures of my S-Techs (which give a drop about that much), CLICK ME, CLICK ME, and you can also CLICK ME!

EDIT: i know the pics are blurry, but hopefully you can see the drop a little bit mill$civic also has the same springs, check his gallery for more pics

 

thanks thanks and also, if i get springs i'll eventually have to get shocks too right? but if i get coilovers will i still have to get shocks too? jw.

 

Flip what size rims are those? and....if i get 15s will it look ok or will there be too much of a "wheel gap" still

 

yes u'll eventually need new shocks with lowering springs or sleeve type coilovers(unless the coilovers are full coilovers). its best to buy the shocks and springs together and install them at the same time. beats installing the springs and then having to take the suspension apart again just to install the shocks. do it once and forget about it.

if u get the correct size tires with the 15's, it'll look similar to how his does.

 

yeah im just gonna wait til i get enough cash to get shocks and springs, does it matter if i get skunk2 shocks with tein springs? probably a dumb question but oh well lol

 

what year civic do you have? i have an '04 (7th gen) sedan w/ tanabe springs, lowering the car 1.8" f&r. i'm installing tokicohp strutsnext month so it doesnt matter if your springs and struts are different brands. the car looked great w/ 18"s on it and still looks good w/ steelies for the winter. if you wanna check it out go to http://www.hondaspace.com/projectlowkey.

 

i have a '97....i was thinking tein lowering springs with skunk2 shocks or skunk2 shocks and springs?

 

that's fine, you can mix brands. it's a better idea to do it all at the same time.
