Nah man it could go MUCH lower... It barely Rubs how it is and rides pretty smooth and I also got it aligned at this height so i dont wanna lower it too much more and screw up my alignment. Its been at this height for about 2 years.

They go pretty low eazy. Enough to tuck 15 inch wheels. I think the name of the coilover does it justice. They are great as far as function goes and quality. Like on AH VTEC's car, thats a very functional setup. And they also go low enough to be more on the form side instead of function. Lol They are good though I doubt you will be dissapointed with your purchase, especially at the price they go for. Hope this helps your decision.

I will have to say that I've spent a good bit of money on my car and my favorite mod would have to be my Function and Form Coilovers... I've got 3 friends that rock the F&F coilover and they all love them and havent had any problems out of them... Just another perspective.

i bought some ef ff type 1s for my da, and they dont dump at all in the front, but the backs do. So had to get some ef forks from the homie and **** with the spring rate and remove rings to dump. But, they do dump for eg's and dc's, just not da's.

'EF' and 'DA' forks are identical so you wont have any change in height swapping to those in your car.
