6th gen springs
finally thinking of lowering my 6th gen sedan. i was wondering what would be the best springs to go with if i dont want to go super low. also i am going to be looking for 18's to put on it .. so sumting to get rid of the wheel gap.. but also sumtin that looks nice until i get the wheels.
I'd say sport springs from any major manufacturer. H&R, Eibach, Neuspeed, Tein came out with some recently as well. They all differ just slightly, you'll have to decide which one will fit what you want best. You'll also get the best results if you match then with performance shocks if you don't have any already.
You'll get strong opinons on what springs to use...usually people like what they have.

I would REALLY recommend Eibach sportline 2.5" drop. It looks great on my 6thgen and it gives me no clearance issues at all. I was actually expecting more of a drop but the one i got is nice. The rife on these springs is awesome. Couldn't have been happier. Get some shocks too. Koni Yellow or Tokico illumina are good.

Schmiddy is right, but I think you should go H&R or Eibach, both companies have years of professional spring experience in more then just tuner cars.
H&R has numerous drops for the 6th gen, from .75" to as much as 2.5-3".
Eibach has Prokits (1.5") and Sportlines (2.5") drops.

It's nearly inpossible to slam an Accord in the same way as, a Civic for example. Do to the Accords suspension it's difficult to tuck a tire. Most rims are a +45mm offset aftermarket this will easily fit inside a Civic fender while a +35mm on an Accord would equal a +40mm on an Accord.
Also with the large over hangs on an Accord you'd catch the nose often. In addition slamming an Accord will result in limited suspension travel and a near skateboard style ride. Totally unacceptable for a street driven car.
