How low for stock EX rims??
I have a 94 Accord and sittin on stock EX rims, what is a good drop for these rims, and can you post some pics?? I was gonna go with an Eibach pro kit but i dont think 1.5" drop will be enough for it to look good, any suggestions are welcome, thanks

I have prokits and tokicos dropped with stock rims and looks great. Kinda a factory sport package look. The more sidewall you have the lower the car will look. If you put 17s w/ a pro-kit drop it won't look as low.
If you don't have to contend with snow or poor roads then go for H&R sports which lower a tad more, that would probably look the best. Just don't slam it on stock rims, IMO that looks ghetto.

I have a 93 EX with stock rims, and I'm thinking of going with Eibach's Sportlines. It think the extra almost 1/2 an inch more than the Pro Kits will be worth it for a little loss in comfort. AccordSleeper, good point about the sidewalls. Those I definitely have -- no mistakin' for low pro's here! That's one good reason to console my inability to purchase new wheels...

Anyways if you do need to drive in snow stick pro-kits and agx's that will be good. I wish I went with agx's. You may also want to consider Apexi WS coilovers or Ground control with tokico Illuminas or Koni yellows. After 2 winters, I kinda wish I could raise it up for those bad storms.
