hey, i got a 2000 accord, 4 door. i want to kno if anyone can tell me a nice setup and wanna drop it aswell. i have 19's currently on it with 225, will 225's be too wide with a lowered suspension or would i need 215's. whats a nice strut and spring combo, or a manf. that has a suspension setup with both already together. also would i need a camber kit. any help would be great

thanks

 

no one with a 98-02 accord has suspension work done?

 

Eibach sport with koni yellows.

 

ok, thats a big *** wheel for you to be lowering the car too much, firstly. Secondly, well, you dont have too many choices of a slight drop, but with that sized wheel your ride is gonna be horrible so i dont think you should get springs that drop the car more than 1.5 inches. I would suggest the Neuspeed Sport springs, they offer a good drop and still maintain a decent amout of ride or even the sof sport springs. For comfort, KYB GR2's, they are perfect for maintaining ride comfort with a drop 1.5 inches or less, and will last a long time as long as your car isnt slammed.

THere are many options as my friend above has mentioned, so take your pick, just make sure you ask questions when ordering, okay?

 

thanks alot dude

yea i was thinking KYB's but my buddy was telling me to go koni's too, cuz they have lifetime warrenty or somethin like that

 

the KYB's have the same warranty, as long as you own the car. So your friend might have made a mistake. The other thing is this, The Koni Sports have you in for a harsher ride. You have to take ride into consideration when you have a set of 19 inch wheels.

the thing is the only kyb availble is Gr2 which is a STOCK replacement, which wouldn't do any good if you have a stiffer spring.

agx? they told us it's coming out back in 98, its 05 now

Koni sport is damper more aggressively i believe.
Koni have a life time warranty for springs only, if you put on skunk2 coilover you are doomed.
what about ground control? they have different shock for them, they are coverd by warranty just in case you ask.

KYB will not honor any warrant claim if your car is lower more than 1.5 inch, which i think it's too stiff for the kyb dampering.

Eibach prokit and koni is a good combo but the spring is too soft for my taste.

 

i would need a some what stiff suspension id think. if i go over a fairly big bump, i dont want my car to push down on my tires, they do they with stock suspension right now...but i think my stock struts and springs are dunski

 

you should check out ground control man, they can manufacture a coil over set up for you with a custom spring rate, that might be the best way to go.

 

theres soooo many options. As long as you get name brand springs and struts .. you should be ok. KONI shocks would be best if you can afford them. If your dropping over 1.75" I would also recommend the KONIs because they use thicker shock rod and shorter body. some springs are Eibach Sportline, Neuspeed Sport or Race, H&R sport, TEIN s.tech, .. also .. a lot of people over look Tanabe springs which IMO are some of the best on the market. They even include a new bump stop! Now how many companies do that?!

 

Do Apex'i make springs for most applications?

 

I have Tein Basic coilover setup brand new in the box for your accord. Let me know if you're interested. jay174@hotmail.com

 

I dont think APEXi makes springs period.
