Hi, I have '02 accord coupe and i'm planing low my car, and get 17inch.
i have no idea what i'm gonna do or how much i'm gonna spend...

and if i get coil-over, do i need anything extra like other shocks or anything??
i heard i need sport shock for lowering spring... i need help~~~~!! PLEASE~~

HELP!~!~!~!!!!!!

AND... ANY RECOMMENDATIONS????

 

Click on the search link in the upper right hand corner and you will find a wealth of information. Use keywords such as Koni , Tein, H&R, shocks, suspension and search these all in the Accord forum. Then when you have an idea of what your looking for, post a question.

 

Well technically speaking you should use adjustable shock with coil-over!!
And you will need a camber and caster adjusting kit to compensate for the amount that you lower or use the suspension techniques adjustable control arm kit!!

As for which is better, the coil-overs are a stiffer ride compared to springs that are made for a certain amount of lowering!!

 

here my theroy about lowering car around 500 bucks
for performance---->Eibach Pro kit(1.5inch drop), is not a slamming your car but it corner better and feel better than stock. wont rub what so ever even with 17's.
the spring rates is all fixed. So is like a plug and play.
For eibach prokit, you dont need a camber kit(anything less than 1.5).
Just install it and set the alignment.
I have my eibach for two month now, it. I have 17's also
as well as 2002 coupe.
I still have my stock shock on, I am waiting for them to blow..which will take more than 2-3 years I bet.
About coilover...dont even touch those ebay 100 buck sh_t..they are junk.
Been there done that.
Get tein if you have cash to flow.

 

THANX FOR THE INFO'S...
one more question...

is "ground control" coilover any good?? for my accord??
