Would i scrape on neuspeed sports? Anyone have pics of there ride with neuspeed sports?
Im not sure if i should go with eibach prokit, im not sure if it will be low enough, but i want neuspeed sports then it might be too low for me!
Which spring should i go with, im either going with bilsteins or koni yellows!

no you will not scrape, i have sportlines, same drop as neuspeed sports, and i cut the front's another 1/2 inch cuz i wasn't happy with the drop, go with the sports, do not get the pro-kits, not low enough enless you have a major body kit and go with the koni yellows

I think i might go with bilsteins over koni yellows, i don't feel like spending 500 dollars on shocks!

Yes the are the Honda Optional 15" rims. I love em but I am selling them with tires(Pirelli p7000z) because I need money, and converting my car back to stock mostly and restarting.

Well the bec techs are only 400, and if there is a group buy there only 350. I say they are the way to go, but it is your choice.

What are the stories you have heard with them? And were they by people who owned them?

I have Neuspeed sports and Bilstein HD shocks.
Car does not scrape, scrub, or anything like that. Rides and handles like a champ :)

Using a tire size like a 215/45/17 would i rub using neuspeed sports because i know alot of people use a profile of 40, but where i live the roads are bad, and i want that extra protection for my rims, so would 215/45/17s be find, would i rub at all or will it come close to rubbing?

It's lowered 1.7"f / 1.5"r

When next to a car that is slammed it does not look that low. But, when next to a civic at stock height you can really tell then. I love the look of the rear (1 finger), but the front is more like close to 2 fingers.
I actually, thought about doing what you did to the front. Just taking a little off the front springs :confused: ....then I thought about buying Neuspeed Race springs and just installing the front ones :confused: Then I thought about taking the entire set-up out - selling it - and get true coilovers :)
How does your car ride now that the springs are cut down? What shocks are you riding on? Who cut them for you?

i'm riding on Tokico blues, and it's fine, no problems at all, i've been in cars with coilovers (sleeves) and my car rides way better, even those with coilovers say that my car rides better, it's probably because the sportlines are progressive springs and coilovers are constant rate. that's why i would suggest NOT getting the race springs, they are constant and might ride real rough, plus u would have progressive in the rear and constant up front, i'm not sure this is a good match. taking a half inch will look much better but will not affect ride quality much at all, it's only a half inch!
to further intensify the drop i bought an ITR front lip, which looks sweet with the drop!!

Who the hell would cut springs though? ...That would be a minor cut and would make a HUGE difference!!

Do they make anything like this for the 6th gen. civic? I was thinking that a front and rear lip would look sweet!! ..Especially if it evened out with the factory side skirts. Cheap body kit :rolleyes:
