I want my civic to sit on the ground. I have 17" rims and I was wondering if its possible to slam my civic? what setup would be the best for this? Stock kit and everything.

 

By the way you described air bags.

 

no i dont want bags. bags aren't for cars with 400+hp motors and going for a sleeper look. I want shocks, springs, etc. I just want a good setup that can sit my car really close to the ground. I dont want to drga but i would like to sit a few inches from the ground

 

can someone help me?

 

Here is a picture of my Si with the custom Ksports we sell. I am not sure what you mean by slammed, but my car is pretty damn low. This is how my car is setup for daily driving. It's about 2.85" low.

 

Ok dude that is my definition of slammed. That looks good as hell, I like that alot. What kinda back bumper you have on that? So what is ur suspension setup?

 

I have a Cwest rear bumper. It's a Cwest kit all the way around.

Like I said, my suspension setup is the custom Ksports that we sell. My car is our main test car. I actually have a 11/15 setup on the car right now. I am out of town and I have yet to change back to my street setup. I was doin more testing at the track before I left.

 

Koni + ground control + ground control upper mounts...

 

and this setup will set me low to the ground. not actually on the ground but really low on 17's?

2.85" low and how big are those rims?

 

What you see in the picture is how I drive my car every day. I have no problems at all. My wheels are Velox PG5's 17x7.

Well I think the pictures speak for themselves bro. No need for me to answer the question again. I have about another inch I can drop the car. But the ride height that it's set at is perfect for me.

 

dude that looks awesome i am telling you. that ride height is about what i want. what kind of back bumper do u have on it though? love cwest kits, i have one in my garage at the moment cant wait to install it. the rims i have are tenzo r mean 6's black with polished lip 17". this is on MR 00 si. Hope mine turns out as good as yours

 

I answered that question already LOL. Are you readin anything I am typing. I already told you what rear bumper I have.

 

dude i am sorry lol by the time i reply to one post you will post one and someone else will post something else so i kinda lose track to what i have read and what i havent lol. but u have any pics of the back?

 

This picture was taken to give that hazzy output. I have a clearer pic on my computer. If your lookin for suspension, I'm the guy to talk to.

 

damn dude that is a nice car, i see you shaved the molding and handles too. I dont know if i want to get that cwest back or not i cant deside lol. i have the front and sides, but i love how ur car sets. but i will holla at you for suspension. about how much can u get me a setup for ?

The sleeves are adjustable so you can "dump" it as low as you want.

The problem is, that to use springs that arent too harsh for street driving, the suspension will be bottoming out all over the place and the ride will suck.

Solution... keep the ride height reaonsable - you can get it low, but dont "dump it".

 

yea i like how bodykits nw's sets it is about what i want.

Well, you can do that but keep in mind that the ride quality wont be good on rough roads. Definately get the GC upper mounts, and a good shock (koni).

 

where can i find the GC upper moutn?

Being "slammed" isnt very sleeper
