Default Gf-210, Df-210 what about shocks>?

Got my Fit this weekend, found one white and black but had to drive from Sc to Ga to get it. Tint is going on this thing first, but I plan to drop it soon, on either Tanabe GF-210's or the DF's prolly the gf's to maintain some kind of height and not scrape/ rub on everything in the road. I see alot of people on fit freak. running these but no one says anything about shocks. I couldnt really find any performance shocks for our cars> unless you spend the money for a full dampener/ coil over set. Lemme know if someone makes some good ones, at a reasonable price.

i was wondering the same thing....i going to be dropping my fit pretty soon......

now the Df's are a lower drop...and i was really thinking about getting them...but i would like to know how they ride....or if i would rub or even if i would need diffrent shocks due to less travel.....

i have the df210's

honestly, they ride like stock, just a LITTLE bit stiffer over bumps, when cruising on freeway or city, it rides like OEM

Did you get an alignment afterwards?Did you just zero out the toe or did you also get the camber bolt?
