4th gen accords
I'm installing coilovers, im trying to go 4 inches. But when i was looking in the rear wheel well, i saw a big bar sticking out, so im only gonna be able to drop it like an inch and a half. I know i've seen people with more than an inch and a half, what should i do?

a good camber kit is around 180 for the front and about that much for the rear, although the rear can bbe done with some washers and screws at home depot, but you risk on killing the screw.

Alright, i guess this is gonna be a bigger project than i thought. Well, better start saving for the camber kit. If I'm gonna do this, might as well do it right.

i got mine from GroundZero Motorsports, which, is a local shop for me, my front ones cost $160 and they have 3.5 degrees max, and the rear kit is from my first compelte kit i got for $100, ingalls, though the front wasnt enough correction so i sold them, the rear i believe is 2.5 degrees correction.

yeah, i thought the same esact thing too, till i got my 4 corner kit for $100, then found out why it was so cheap, the front was only 1.75 degree max adjustment. that would be fine with a 1.5 inch drop or so. sometimes you cant always go for the cheapest just because youve got a couple bills in your hand. otherwise your gonna be very unhappy with the choices you make. im tellin' you, save your money and do it right.
