I just got finished installing my suspension and it rides nice. The only thing I noticed is when I take a corner faster than 10mph the tire rubs a little, right now I have stock tires on there but tommorow I am putting my 17's on, if it gets worse is there anything I can do to fix this? Shave the wheelwells? If someone has a walkthrough that would be great, thanks. I will post pics after I get rims on it

I hope you did not go lower than 2.5

It's a black 99 Honda Civic EX, bought it a month ago, it's got euro tails, si spoiler, eibach sportlines, illumina 5 way struts, 17" Tenzyo Passion rims, Sylvania head lights. On Friday I am picking up a type R grill.

1.5 in teh front and 2.0 in the back is not really that bad, I dont think you would need a camber kit for that I think anything lower than 2 you would

i just dropped my car 1.25" haha. Still looks stock but thats what i was kinda aiming for. Sometimes i wish i went lower. I was also wondering... does it take time for springs to settle and "break in"? I ask because now that i wish i went lower... im hopeing it will "break in" or something and lower it a bit more.

My original drop was 1.5 in the back and almost 2 in the front, it has dropped at least another .5 since I installed
