Default Drop on 08 Accord

My Boy has An 08 4 door the wheels are 20 by 8.5 with a 38mm offset. What would be a safe daily drop on them I was looking at the Tein Luxury Master for Him since its a DD. Anyone with any suggestions ? He would like to retain the stock shocks.

Both Eibach and OEM Honda HFP offer spring retrofits that lower the car moderately and safely

You should tell him to rock coilovers - He'll be happier in the long run.

Friends don't let friends ride springs.

doesn't void warranty??? u crazy, of course it does!!! i have those springs on my car. Honda will INSTANTLY look at that on your stock shocks and blame u of racing and will not replace ANY suspension parts under warranty if something bad happens.

but yeh, i'd go with coilovers, even tho more pricey, i wish i'd have them instead so i can drop it a little more
