Default Lowering Question

I have a 91 LX. I put 17" rims on her with 50 sidewalls. How far can I drop her without having to worry about clearance issues?

With a 205 width I'm assuming?? 50 profiles you're probably looking at just over 2" without any huge issues. Correct me if I'm wrong here people...

if you don't want to worry about clearance issues, don't drop it.

the lower you go, the more you increase your chances of having clearance issues, especially with a larger size wheel.

btw, what size tire are you running. you should be running a 215/45, or a 205/35 on a 17 inch wheel on a 4th gen accord.
