Default Pics Of Various Drops!

Hey guys. I'm planning on getting some springs and *maybe* shocks soon. Please post some pics of your current drops and list what Brand and model springs/coilovers you have and the amount of drop. Also list if you have any extra suspension parts installed. I personally have a 5th Gen. but others are welcome for other peoples use. Lets keep this simple without arguing. Thanks!

There is a similar thread from a few days ago with I think four different pics so far: https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...threadid=28891

Yeah, like razor said, they are 15" 95 EX alloys that I painted graphite metallic. The tires are 195/60/15.

yeah, man. that sucks. and I only say it b/c i hope my accord doesn't look like that Friday when i put these eibach sportlines on. supposed to put a 1.8"/1.7" drop (F/R). I got a feeling mine will suck as bad as yours does.

How low is the drop on yours?

Yeah, I've got a '97 EX. I actually copped dem 5 spoke rims from the special edition and put on my accord. I think they are 15" x 6" and shiny whereas the stock rims were 15" x 5.5" and dull as fukc. Plus I could never get them really clean up in those gazillion tiny spokes. I also copped Falken 205/60/R15 tires, so my tires are a tad bit wider (10 mm) than the stock 195- series. I think I have a little bit more sidewall showing also.

Man, I hope my drop doesn't look that bad Friday?

Were you commenting on how bad the drop looks on my car? You're entitled to your opinion, that's cool. Just know that I wasn't going for the "sitting on the ground" look alot of people go for. I wanted something that would handle better, look better, and not be too low so I didn't have to be too cautious when going over bumps, don't have to worry about the tires rubbing on the wheel well, stuff like that. I am a father of 2 so my comfort and thiers was my #1 goal when deciding to drop, going any lower would be more of a headache than anything. I love it, I looks a hell of alot better than it did, handles better and isn't all bouncy either so all of my goals were met.
