Default Help on lowering my 95 accord

I dun have experience on what do I need to lower my ride. A 1.5 to 2 inch will be good enough on it. Just wondering what do i need to lower it.

Will the Eibach Pro-Kit work with my stock shocks? Any other opinion to lower about 1.5 inhc?

Eibach Prokits never go low enough, you'll want to go Sportlines, trust me.

Pretty much any spring will work with stock shocks, but the lower you go, the more likely you will blow them.

There's no definite period on when they will go, but aftermarket shocks are a worthy investment. Not only will they make the car handle better, but the ride quality will be less bouncy from the get-go.

I personally recommend Sportlines (~1.8 drop) with KYB AGX or GR2 shocks.

You're also going to want to look into getting an alignment once you're dropped.

Yeah..>Eibach says their springs work with OEM shocks, but they lie like no other. Your shocks would probably blow in a short period of time. I'd get some nice adjustables (KYB AGX/Koni Yellows) and either the pro-kit or some Neuspeed Sport springs. They drop around 1.75".

I beg to differ. I love the modest drop that the Pro Kit gave me. Personal Pref, I guess.
