i have a 98 civic 2dr ex and i wanna lower it. could i just get new springs or do i need shocks as well? and what kinda springs/shocks should i get? i was planning on taking off the hubcaps and drivin it on steelies and how many inches should i drop it?

 

you could buy springs and or shocks.
run height depends on the type of springs you get. you could also get coilovers which allows you to set the ride hieght. research it online. you'll find plenty.

 

so if i just buy springs its ok? my shocks wont get messed up?

 

well answer these questions first:

what is your budget?
what will be the purpose of the car once lowered?
How low do you want to be?

 

budget is lower the better but less then a grand

purpose is just to look good

probably 2inches
