Default Suspension...

I have been looking into different suspensions, i get told either lowering springs are better then other say coil over, personally im not sure so if anyone can help me out, that and the research i have done put tein and skunk2 on the top (for coils) and for lowering i heard that comptech was pretty nice? anyone else have any ideas?

agh dude!... i got a 01 civic coupe currently running Koni adjustable struts with ground controls coilovers. and i want to get something BETTER!.. its sucks.. the disign of the rear strut is terrible.. within the past 2 months i have dropped the rear suspernsion 3 times. see.. there is a groove for a C clip that holds up the coilover, and the spring. so all the weight of the car is resting on a about a 3 mm wide ride thats probaly only 1mm thick. well.. Koni has to do somethign about it cuz i've busted 3 C rings so far. its a poor design. i'm looking for a new suspension and i think i'm gonna dish out the money for a set of Teins.

I am running the same set up Blu, and have had no problems, are you running over potholes at 90? I will suggest this set up to anyone, I love it.

How low are most of you dropping your rides? I was thinking about 2 or so, but the only thing is im wondering if im going to have problems with speed bumps, etc. Just wondering to i dont make it to low.

I think 2 inches is cool. Anything more and you will have issues with speed bumps.

My front bumper lives on the pavement! In and out of driveways are the worst!
