oh yeah i didnt use spacers/lifters...
i used my coilovers.. them ***** could go high... i have like 2-3 more inches to go in the front...you could see one of the pictures when i went high in the front

the rear could go higher...the higher you get the harder it is to line up all the bolts in the rear...front was sooo easy...

Looks Sweet, this is what i'd like to do as well, slammed for the summer and lifted for winter, And the good thing is it can be done with the coilovers

i saw cragar soft 8, the offset im getting is +6 offset is the one im getting.. so its not that sticking
out too much, ive seen 0 offset and negative ones and theyre having issues w/ rubbing in front,
good luck!

Lifted is definitely the way to go. I was slammed for 4 years and after buying 4 sets of struts (including 2 sets of teins) i said to hell with it. When my trial period is over I'll post some pictures. I'm running 2" lift and 235/65r17's with minor rubbing... I had to shave a little plastic and persuade some pinch welds but all is good now

I'm still a trial user right now but I'll post plenty of pictures when i can. The stock ridgeline wheels are 17x7.5 +48 (i think) i had to run a 1.25" hub spacer/converter from 5x114 to 5x120. I've never been a fan of running hub spacers for fear of more damage buuuuuuut i like how factory wheels look and those were the widest Honda offers soooooo that's what i ended up with. I picked up the wheels for $150 and only one has a little curb rash. Eventually I'll powdercoat them a gunmetal color or something.

If you have an Instagram my name is the same name as this one... I have a few pictures of it up there right now. I'm going to be plastidipping it this week so it'll all be one color again after the accident. If your wheel is a 5x4.5 you'll need to get the converter hub

I just posted pics in the other thread of my 15x8 with 4.5" backspace. I have 205/70 rubber (oem) and it will for sure rub in the rear with any kind of articulation. The front don't rub anywhere when turning but will with articulation.

Berz out.
