EF Hatch F+R Shocks On 2000 Civic Question.
I have a pair of Tokico Illuminas for a 88-91 Honda Civic EF Hatch that I was able to get "New" for half price. Friend sold his hatch before he installed them.
My question is: How low can I go before bottoming out without extended TopHats?
The EF Shocks are 1.5" shorter than stock 2000 Ex shocks. So, my Civic will sit 1-1.5" lower with them installed. Trying to fill in the gap a bit more for a nicer look. Maybe 1"-1.5" lower is what I measured to fill in that gap.
Tire Size: 205/45-16 (37 offset)
Rims: Rota Streamlines
Current Drop: 2.5" Front 2.25" Rear

Get some MPC motorsports drop forks and rear drop LCA's, you should be good.
