Default for all you guys with SLAMMED rex's

hey im calling out anyone with slammed crx's, my girlfriend is getting ready to do the suspension on her crx, and we are gonna be running 205/50/15 tires, with a +40 offset rim. my question is how do you guys slam the hell out of your cars without it rubbing? the car is still in the body work stages, so i could remove the fender lining on the front and and trim out the lip on the rear quarters is what i was thinking, any suggestions? thanks

Don't slam that car and you won't have those issues. Just give it a nice lowered stance and call it a day. There is a point when going to low will hinder the ability of the car. Riding on bumpstops isn't cool.

please don't Mexi-fy your car, if you want a kicked out tire-slammed ride, then get a Regal.

If I told you to jump off a bridge would you?

Who cares what other people think function &gt; fashion.

Unless looks matter so much to you sell your honda and get a set of prada boxers.

If you need to be low for some reason you can get adjustable coilovers.

People with show cars don't drive those cars, you know that right. So it doesn't matter what their suspension setup is or how low it is.

Do what is functional for your use. Slammed is not functional for everyday use.

SO YOU'RE HONDA CAN SIT AN INCH FROM THE GROUND AND YOU CAN TEETER-TOTTER ON SPEED BUMPS AND RAILROAD TRACKS, SKIN CHECK!!!!!!!! DON'T DISGRACE YOU'RE HONDA BY "SLAMMING" IT TO THE GROUND, JUST GET A NICE SET OF ROLLERS, MAYBE SOME ADJUSTABLE COIL-OVERS, AND END IT THERE, A CAR THAT SITS AS LOW AS YOU SOUND LIKE MAKING IT WOULD RIDE LIKE CRAP, AND YOU WOULD FEEL EVERY PEBBEL AND CRACK IN THE STREET....

BUT IT WOULD LOOK COOL RIGHT??????????? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
