i would do before and after but i dont have any pics of my car stock

 

I've got T1R Ver.1 Springs. Little high in the rear, but they corrected that with Version 2. Also, I'm on 15x6.5 +38 offset. Hope this helps...

Before: See Red Fit above ^

After:

Mine's lowered on Eibach Pro springs and Civic steelies with winter tires. No camber issues here. I haven't even aligned it and my winter tires have no signs of alignment wear. I'll be getting it aligned before installing my summer rubber.

 

I've got the Tein springs and I do not recommend them, unless you like bouncing all over the place

 

tanabe! great ride quality and good looking drop!

 

Eibach, they are simply the best springs made. You can decide between the Pro-Kit or Sportline depending on how low you want to go. Don't fall for the JDM is better BS, go with what the pros use.

Vogtland also has a great kit for this car as well, the guys at Norm Reeves Honda in Cerritos, CA has these on thier showy cars, and there were some pics on here from someone installing them, not sure where the post is.

I would definitely agree with Jon . Eibach springs are no joke. The prokit is perfect for daily use with no harsh ride quality or rubbing (depending on wheels). These springs have been proven to work perfectly fine with your stock shocks. Keep in mind on your specific needs to determine how low of a drop you would feel comfortable with...wouldn't want to go with too low of a drop and have other passengers always riding in your vehicle or realize its too aggressive of a drop. Pro kit on my fit...sportlines on the EK...holy!

 

how low is your ek?

 

The sportlines on the EK settled to about a 2 inch drop my guesstimate. Previously had the pro kit on the EK as well but you can really see the difference between both kits. Sportlines handle freaking great compared to my old pro kit. I noticed that the springs also settle according to the weight characteristics of the vehicle. another thing to keep in mind

 

I am just curious if any of you who have lowered your Fit have run into dangers like scraping your doors on the sidewalk when you parallel park, or when you have many passengers/cargo on board.

Even stock, there are times when the curb seems like it is about to kiss my door. I'd love to get some Eibach Sportline springs, but boy would it suck....

Sorry if this is a n00b question - maybe the spring-makers are smart enough and make'em good and stiff so this isn't an issue?

I hope you realized if you looked into the difference in drop heights between the sport line kit and the pro kit that would help out with your question. I mentioned in the previous post the pro kit is perfect if you're not looking for and aggressive drop. It eliminates the ugly gap between the tire and the fender itself. obviously if your not careful you will scrape for sure. I have not experienced any such problems since I try to be aware of what I'm driving over. ill try to post up some pics of my fit with the pro kit sometime tis weekend so you can see what I'm talking about.
