Default DA smooth suspension advise pls

Newbie here. Just got a bone stock 93 integra and looking into fixing it up for a smooth
ride. we all do want a low-ridin' look but i do know this'll affect the ride. i already put sportline eibachs but will soon be putting in 16s with 45 or 50 series tires. will be posting pics of my ride soon. kinda proud of it being pretty clean. especially the engine bay . is there a way to get the car to go low and still have a relatively smooth ride?

The correct size for 16s is 205/45-16 or 215/45-16 for you car.

And no, you can't be low and smooth.

you will feel more of the road with the smaller sidewall.

low and smooth in a DA, thats a good one. if you find a way for that to happen let me know.

Airbags, or air cylinders. Neither will result in good handling, but thats the only way to ride low and relatively smooth. Of course, since they tend to encourage random ride heights, expect to chew through tires like a madman.
