I recently bought some cheap coilovers for my 2001 2 door accord.It has 18 inch rims on it, I am thinking about lowering it 2 inches. Will my car handle better with the coilovers? Also will 2 inches be too low?

 

O yea, by the way i live in Northern California and the roads here are pretty decent.

 

well you just said that you baught some cheap coilover, so no your car won't probably run better since you went the cheap way

 

Lol well i am a college student so my money is low

 

Also i dont care how much i spent on the coilovers. Wont any my car handle better because it will have a lower center of gravity?

 

if you plan on getting coilovers that are lesser in quality than TEIN's or GC's then your car will feel like a boat. i bought ebay coilovers and replaced them with lowering springs within 2 weeks its just a waste of time and money and your car will run worse than stock

 

Should of got TEIN.

teins are over rated. dont get me wrong, they are quality stuff. but people hold their name like they are the end all gods of suspension.

but i guess thats what good marketing techniques get you.

No.
Think what springs do.
Then think what shocks do.
