Default whats up guys! i just traded my lifted truck for this integra. it sits super lowHELP

This Integra is cool, I like it. Fast. But it sits low. I like how low it sits but it rubs pretty bad...is there anything I can do like maybe pull the fenders or take the plastic wheel well off? I really don't want to have to raise it. I'll post pics right now.

It's only the right side that really rubs though... So I will take a pic of that next

nice teg you picked up. if it has coilovers you can adjust the hight(to a degre) if not look into getting some stock GSR/ITR suspension(shock,strut,springs) or if it has cut springs find stock gs/ls/gsr springs and put them on.

Hmm.. take off your wheels and see what's underneath. If its stock then most likely cut springs. Then change to stock our get itr suspension if you want stock but upgraded

Coilovers then adjust the perch up 1-2 inches.

If nothing is blown, take it to a shop to get your fenders rolled to maintain the stance but not rub as much.

Yeah like many said, check if its stock with cut springs or if aftermarket shock/springs or coilovers. If they're cut springs go with either stock itr suspension which provides like an inch drop compared to stock integras or go with aftermarket/stiffer springs so you won't bottom out or anything. Personally I ordered a Koni/GC set up with 450f/400r and the ride is smooth and just stiff enough for me to enjoy.

Ok thanks for all the advice. But are the springs you guys are recommending me going to raise it more then a inch and half? And I will take pics of the shocks tomorrow and let you guys help me decide if they are cut. He said they were lowering springs. But they look cut to me. Sorry about not knowing **** I'm 19 and new to all the Honda/Acura stuff

judging by the hight of you'rs...possibly. but fender rolling is an option but i'll bet you'r exhaust is scraping also witch is why you'd like it a bit higher. best bet:ITR Suspension or a spring set that isn't as "short". but if you have agx/koni/gc's or aftermarkt shocks i'd leave them and mess with springs.

Way too low, not practical for DD, If you do not already have adjustable coil-overs, get some, that way you can set it up for DD, get wheel alignment for that, and then if you want to lower it "till it scrapes" for a show&shine, you can do that in less then 30min. 94
