Default having a lowered car rocks!!!

just lowered my 00 EX about 2" on teins, and man its a pretty big difference didnt think it would of been like that. but it looks so hot, just hit my damn lip on a lot of things so i gotta change my driving habits, but it handles great, and the AGX's make a difference. my alignment is almost perfect, so i still need to go out and get that done, but the car runs and looks great, thanks to everyone that helped me out with all my questions about that.

nice bro, I love teins. great quality:thumbup: Another one of my choices before I decided on my neuspeed sportkoni yellow setup. I love being lowered too but its quite the hastle to get things done around these parts. I'm a little low for most shops around here to do alignments and the like.

It's really not about how low the car is, it's about what adjustments are available. The vette's sit stock that low so their stock camber/toe adjustements are already there for that stance. Your civic doesn't have the adjustments for such extreme camber changes.

Hope that makes sense.

you just need to align your toe. As long as your camber isn't -3 degrees, you'll be fine.
