not those coilovers save up a few bucks and get some skunk 2 coilovers

 

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

Does that answer your question.

Don't skimp on suspension or brakes. You will be disappointed every time you drive your car on less than smooth roads.

My suggestion.

KYB 4 or 5 way adjustable struts and either tein, nuespeed or equal quality springs at minimum.

Around a 300.00 to 500.00 setup depending on how much you get the struts for.

It will lower roughly 1.5 inches and will ride soft enough to like and stiff enough to really like.

My 0.02 you have been warned.

 

 

let me ask the people that post on here...where are you getting these coilovers...such as skunk2, tein?...they cost a pretty penny i mean 1000 in some cases...i believe me i would love to get some good coilovers myself..but someone please tell me where?

 

I found an online site that maybe made a mistake but sold me kyb AGX? the adjustables for the price of normal gr2's. I forget how much exactly but the total was like 178.00

Otherwise google and the power of the internet. Someone always has name parts for less than retail.
I refuse to ever pay retail again.
You should be able to get good coilovers from anywhere around 300.00 to 700.00 for daily drivers just depends on which name you like.

Hate to say it but you just have to search around.

 

go on ebay and get the skunk2 coilovers

 

if not get omni power coilovers or dropzone coilovers... the ride isnt that bad and all you pay is around 100

i think you're lookin at the full coilovers... dont get those.. get just the sleeved ones... if your oem shocks still ride good then you'll be ok... but you cant go too low on stock shocks... i know from experience... i bough ebay coilovers when i was like 17 and it messed up my whole suspension and i had to buy new shocks (kyb agx) and new coilovers (dropzone) now it rides nice

 

but you get what you pay for... if you have a good amount of cash i would say to look into a full coilover setup... i cant waste 800 on my suspension so i didnt do that

 

also i found these coilovers...anyone know if their any good?

that price is pretty steep for a bad brand, when you can get omnipower coilovers for half the price... trust me u wont be dissapointed

 

but also..how much should i lower my civic...with 17" wheels??

and also what about a full lip kit? would it look right?
