Those old springs look rough! This is a nice upgrade!

I have a properly lowered (Tein springs, Koni Struts, adjustable ball joints, rear camber adjusters) 94EX wagon, and will tell you that you may experience contact between the upper control arms and the upper fender if it is slammed and you hit an "average" bump.

Any advice about type of lowering springs i have a 2002 accord coupe.
How low should I go, I dont wanna go too low because of the winters here, dont wanna damagae anything.
also ive been hearing its better to get lowering springs and replace the shock/struts together.
what do you guys recommend, can i get away with just getting lowering springs for now?
and what brand (combo)

stock strut height was 18" from bottom to top uncompressed
this is 14" bottom to top uncompressed
so a 4" drop?

I play on running a 15x8 +20 or a 16x8 +20 with a 45 series tire.
I do plan on rolling and taking the fender lining out as well.
It should be on the road by the 18th of this month, Ill have my DL back as well as it plated. Will be working on the back soon, I havent got time to get down there and grind the bolts off.
