92 eg Hatch, Lowering questions
soi have adjustable coils with alot of adjustment to go
i really would like to go lower, but as i look more into it looks like ill need to add some adjustable camber kits and maybe do some work to the inner fender? i may have to drop some wheel sizes and try to play "what fits, what doesnt" any tips and tricks on this topic would really help, thanks

Here...
If you are going any lower than 1-1.5" you will need camber kits front and rear
I definitely recommend upgrading your shocks unless you have already done so.
You may need to roll the fenders a little bit to clear the GSR Blades on your hatch, but it should not be too much.
It also depends on the tire size you are running. Your wheels (15" right) will be fine. If you want to go lower you may need a narrower or thinner (Less sidewall) tire.
In my opinion I would not go too much lower. I think if your lower the front a little bit it will be just about perfect (for my tastes), but make it look how you please!

Why does he "need" camber kits?
I am lower then that, and I get perfect tire wear. Remember, camber does not kill tires.
There is no way you searched. this information isn't exactly hard to come by.

Re: 92 eg Hatch, Lowering questions
After lowering, the toe being off is what kills the tires, not the camber....by lowering the car and adjusting camber back to 0, you are actually just made the car not handle as good. Pretty sure he didnt search at all.
Dont understand why you would need to drop a wheel size to lower the car. How low do you wanna go anyway? Teenager low? Cant get into certain driveways low? If you drop the front a hair, your ride height will be perfect. If your planning on tucking the tires on some oem wheels, sorry bro but its not gonna make the car look any cooler if thats what your trying to do. <----- I bet....
