Default Lowering 5th Gen Lude

When getting springs should i get the H&R or invest a little bit more money and get skunk, i heard they were a little bit more money but r they better. Also whats a good range to lower 1.5' ? or should i go less or more. I will also get 205/40/17 Wheels. Also should i get Shocks? or will springs do. Thanx

I'll ask you one question are you interested in learning about camber?
Simple explaination.... anything lower than 1.25" will give negative camber. Which you won't be able to adjust unless you purchase for about $250 for a camber adjustment kit. Ingalls sp? has them.

i have a 5th gen prelude with neuspeed race springs with a 2.5" drop with KYB AGX adjustable gas shocks. i dont hvae a camber kit, but i havent had any negative camber, well atleast from what the mechanics say. im not saying u should drop it 2.5, but it does looks clean. i have a body kit that hangs pretty low and i dont really have trouble going over speed bumps or nething. shocks help alot too though and if u wanna be safe, get a camber kit.
