Default 91 sedan question about height?

I have a 91 civic sedan with 98 gsr rear brake setup i think my struts are shot but i need someone elses opinion on it, the setup is h&r springs the red ones and oem struts, i know im going to get hated on for this but i have 17" rims and tires on it for now because thats alll i had with brand new tires my si rims were bald, so anyway the front of my car when i hit a bump the front crossmember will hit the ground im guessing struts are bad you tell me , also since the rear brake conversion was done before i bought the car do i have to buy gsr struts for the back or do i use 91 struts, if you can make any since of all this your help will be appreciated thanks Toren

sounds like you need new shocks.

you would use shocks made for your civic.

i recommend illuminas.

I was looking at the tokico hp's just because they are like 237.00 shipped but if the illuminas are not that much more those would be the better to get . thanks

yes, get the illuminas. i cannot stress it enough. i will not vouch for HP's. you will want to buy new shocks sooner than later. illuminas have lasted me years of use.

look on ebay for the best deal through a reputable dealer.
