It's not low enough to need camber adjustment, you'll just want to rotate your tires to make sure you get more even wear.

I'd recommend them for sure.
Ditto. Working okay for me.

What is the drop on those H&R Sports? I am considering lowering springs with stock shocks also... I have a very low income at my age...

I was also considering the Eibach Pro-Kit. What would be better?.. The Pro-Kit or H&R Sports?

Thanks!

i hav Neuspeed Sportline & they are similar to H&Rs, also on stock shox. i'm pretty comfortable, but i do feel a little more lean than when 1st new last year. if i get new shox i'll just get KJoni REDs or the low price KYBs, not too interested in a firm, tight ride. it's not a sports car, so why front. i dropped my car becuz of that wheel gap, too...but i still want 17s for better traction & control

They aren't meant to be dropped two inches. I know shocks are expensive, but it really makes for a complete setup when you match your springs with a performance shock. Just my opinion
I agree, especially for the older accords where your shocks probably have 75K+ on them. On a newer Accord though I can see where you would keep the stocks shocks for a few years, but I would upgrade if you can.

Do you have Neuspeed Sport or Eibach Sportline? You mixed the two together
