Ok I just found out that my stock springs in the front were cut and I was wondering if the S-techs are any good? I have 235-35-19 ( I know HUGE) that came on the car and I think that they will be fine but could tell for sure (or close) if they will be fine.

Thanks
Stephen

 

Pics?

 

 

Well...2 totally different car. But my friend had an STI with 19's on it...with S-techs, and all was good untill the Rr started to sag...And the fenders began to eat away at the tires... And *** sag can definately be a problem with Honda's.

 

I'd definitely worry about the rear quarter panels getting destroyed with a drop.

Sell the wheels then drop.

 

I would love to sell them but they look so damn good... and what wheels could I get anyways?

 

Any wheels you want bro!

I'd stay in the 15-17" range though.

 

I also think that I have plenty of wheel gap in the rear.

 

I hate to say it but they look and are way too big for an ep. Even if they were 17s, I'd be nervous after a drop and alignment. (I rubbed and needed to roll my quarters when I had 225/45/17s)

and from that pic it doesn't look like the stock springs were cut

nope... I want some 17's but I would need a big drop not a 1.5

 

What do you mean you'd need a bigger drop with 17s? Right now the rear of your car is screaming for more of a drop than 1.5 inch.

the fronts were cut and I think that I am going to get stock springs and leave it be

 

I have stock 2002 rsx-s springs if you want them.

I know I may need some shocks too

*slips nahonda04 a fiver*

 

baller civic. if you want your ep to scoot, i heard 15-16's, if you like more showy 17s (not that you cant scoot with these) My tein's are good, perfect for daily driving im still on my stock rims and tires

RSX shocks won't work properly on the Ep3. Rear bottom shock eye will need to be ground down if you want them to fit and you'll need to buy RSX tierod ends for the front.

Other than that, main your problem are those 19" wheels.

 

Your main problem are 19's.... really should consider getting rid of them if not just get some front stock springs and shocks!
