Re: about to slam the hatch (Voyage34)
those lca's arent going to offer anything to a street car, and the bushings are known to wear out quickly.
how low do you plan on going? most tire wear issues can be corrected by getting an alignment, so unless you are trying to dial in specific camber for tracking the car, those arent going to benefit you much. ive heard of people lowered ~3.5" without camber kits, just a properly done alignment with zeroed toe who have no abnormal wear issues.
not having used those coilovers myself so i cant comment on them specifically, though there are many people happily running those. what rates do they come with?

Re: about to slam the hatch (EKEJ6)
i got omni power sport coilovers alot better then the lowering springs that came on the car. i also replaced the rear lca (omnipower too) never heard anything bad about them and bushings seem fine but they have only been on the car about a month. but they have got to beat stock lol. they are a bit bumpy but i wanted my suspension to be stiff with my b16 turbo i need all the traction i can get.

Re: about to slam the hatch (salesmonkey)
how low are u going? have u owned a lowered vehicle before?
only asking cuz dumping a car can make for a real teeth rattlin ride i had an accord u could hardly slide the toe of your shoe under the side skirt and the ride was less than enjoyable especially in this area lots of dips
little dips in the road u would never even see or consider before become a real pain in the *** after going so low. used to spray sparks on the interstate going across overpasses
all in all the setup sounds good though
