next upgrade
ok i drive a 95 accord ex coupe was auto just got done converting it myself to 5speed. so that was the 1st major upgrade i did to my car. i am going to be keeping this car for a long time so it seemed natural to change it over and get that slushbox out of there.
so now on to my next upgrade
handling
i am a big fan of the way honda has done the body styling for there line up of cars in all the gens. exept what they did to the rear of accords. i dont like the way the rear quarter panel sticks out so far over the rear wheels. i personally dont like it.
so to correct that i was going to get these
http://www.kingmotorsports.com...l=863
along with a set of tein coilovers and a nice camber kit
so my question is has anybody used or sene a accord with these spacers?
what do you like about them
or
and do they do anything to help the look and or handling of the car
is this a good idea or bad idea not for personal opinions i mean is it good or bad for the car itself? will it effect the wishbone suspension?
and i am keeping the stock ex alloys
all comments are welcome as long as they have something to do with the product we are talking about
i dont want
"no they are uber gay"
or "its rice"
and i am open for product suggestions regardeing this matter
so dont say "yeah i got a pruduct for you get a gun and kill yourself" like i have sene on other threads

Don't do wheel spacers because you will probably end up having to roll the lip on your fenders. Also for suspension on your car I would suggest custom rate ground control coilovers with Koni Yellows and ST sways. Great combo. Also you will want a camber kit if you drop it more than two inches and the camber kit will most likely it the inner fender which can be fixed but it requires some muscle work.

the thing is, you are not driving on a perfectly flat road.
the gap is there to give travel space, even if you just want the no gap look, when you go over a bump or drive on a rough surface, your rubber will shoot straight up and bent up your fender.
for six gen accord, there's less fender clearance problem but if you lower it all the way(one inch gap, not even tucking) the strut will run into the control arm
they wouldn't even let you to use a spacer without extened studs in most track, they tend to break on stress, which is not exactly fun.
not to mention they look pretty stupid(sticking out an inch or more, think mexican style low rider)
someone sold me his itr 114.3 rims before had those on his teg, it looks dumb and it messed up your steering gemeotry.

good point about the wheel gap
