i want to slam my 96 ek hatchback, i have coils sleeves from a eg civic ( came with the car). the rear sleeves are lowered to the max but the tires still have a 1/2 inch gap. which brand of sleeves will lower my car even more (2 inches +)

i would like mine to look like these

 

ANYONE?

 

What rims do you have?

 

You can get shorter springs for the rear. Measure yours and just get shorter ones from Ground Control.

 

i have si wheels 205 55 15

 

how would i get measurments of different springs, are crx rears coil sleeves shorter?

 

If the sleeves are all the way down, why bother having them to begin with? lol. Remove the sleeves for the max drop, but in your case it sounds like the springs are too big. Any pics?

 

well i would go with a 205-50-15 tire and i hear and seen ground controls dumped

tires are on the big side like said above go with 205-50-15 or even a 195-50-15

 

You can take the sleeves and flip them upside down that will lower it a little more if thats not enough take out one of the adjusters or you could always cut them

 

why don't you just keep the car the way it is and save up for a better suspension instead of being ghetto. you'll be better off in the long run trust me.

 

save up for some good suspension. here are some pics of my ride slammed on D2s. the preload on mine is also dropped

Second, cutting them or turning them upside down is something you definately don't want to do. Better off getting a set of springs/sleeves(if you must)/coilovers that will get your car the stance you are looking for with out cutting/flipping/rigging them. I think coilovers will be your better option, though they will cost you a little more, but will make your car ride better and give you the freedom to adjust them as low as you want.

 

yeah bro I wud just save up some cash and get a gud set up.. The Omni ones from weaksos run like $650 er something like that!

So you want him to buy a decent suspension just to dump the car? Why? The performance benefits are gone at that point anyway, and so is the ride quality.

Why waste the money? If you're just looking to dump it, any crap will do.

OP: either take out your sleeves to lower the car, or buy springs for a 7th gen civic. 01-05. Those springs are super short. They work, trust me.

A smaller tire would ADD to the wheel well gap.
