is this drop too low for a 93 EG????
well i ordered my springs. they are a 2.50 drop in the front and 2.25 in the rear.
i need to know if i am going to rub or scrape bad on my 17 in wheels. does anybody in here have that low of a drop without rubbing or scraping??

I honestly do not know how low I'm riding since they are on coilovers...but I rub wheel wells on my 15's during U-turns. Everyday driving, I'm ok. My wheels are pretty tucked on 205/15/50.

i use to have a civic coupe with neuspeed race springs and 17" tsw trophys (205/40-17 tires)without rubbing problems. it looked like it was literally sitting on the rims. so it shouldn't be a problem, just as long as you have the rite offset (i think it was +40). mite also consider camber kits for the front and washers in the rear.
if your setup rubs, you could always roll the fenders.

all cars are different...some drop lower than others, some dont.......it really depends on your wheel's offset and width......i dont think you're going to rub too bad, maybe on a U-turn you'll get some scrapage on the INNER fender, but dont worry too much......only one way to find out......INSTALL those coily bastards

That white hatch looks like my old one...This is with Koni Yellows and Ground Control coil-overs. I beleive they were almost all the way down. Either way, it sucked with that setup, cause it almost road on the bumpstops (had maybe a half inch of shock travel!!).
That's why my new car has Zeals

I don't like much over a 2" drop. Camber problems for the reason.
I prefer 1.5 - 2.0
