Default looking to lower my Accord

i drive a 07 Accord coupe, im looking to drop it a inch or two. ive looked around and all ive been able to find are over priced racing springs, and i have no desire to ever take my car out onto a track, or start racing people on the freeway. i just want to lower it down a couple of inches and have it ride just a good as it does now. i guess all in all i want something basic, that looks good, and rides just as well. any suggestions??? i appreciate any feedback

race spring is just a title they use to classify how much it will drop the car. i.e. sport springs, race springs etc.

youd have to tell us what year, coupe/sedan to help out.

but id go with a simple set up like koni yellows and GC sleeves so you can adjust the height if need be or koni yellows and a spring of your choosing. Theres millions of options out there.

Tein, Ksport, Neuspeed, eibach, Form&Function, D2, Megan Racing are all reputable companies and prices range for obviously.

just go with springs like htech(tein) with stock shocks until they blow and upgrade to a better shock. itll get you the drop you want, with the ride you want, for now..

It's 2011. There are still no "better" shocks (performance) for the G8 Accord.

If this was year 2008, we can say they need some extra time.

I just recently picked up an 07 accord v6 sedan. From what I have read, I will probably stick with the Eibach Pro-Kit. I guess it retains the most stock feeling of steering and suspension. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong though.

Eibach is also slashing prices on their website right now. I'm still thinking about getting the tiny-bit-lower Sportline, though.
