well i've read the reviews on the springs and i just wanted to hear from anyone that had one or the other on their ride and hear what you guys had to say about them. which ones are better and why? on the advertised dropped, was it exactly as the company advertise or did it drop lower or vice versa? did you guys also get camber kits too and new shocks and struts? i know that new shocks and struts would be nice to get with the springs, but what i really want to know is, is it necessary to get the camber kit. the reason i'm asking is a friend of mind who has a ford focus said that if he droped it lower than 1.5 he would need to get a camber kit for his car, so i was wondering is their a range for an accord (93 EX) to where you would or would not need to get the camber kit?

 

I dont think you need to get a camber kit for anything under 2 inch.(drop)
eibach>H&R imo
I have eibach prokit...very very minor camber issue and almost stock riding
quality
get some AGX for your ride..dont cheap out here..
330 for a sets of new agx..cant beat the price.

Do some more Search...it's been cover..em..about 5 millions times?
and go read the guildling while you at it..
saving some bashing

 

eibach prokit-->200
eibach sportline-->200
H&R-->150+-(dont know about their price)
I got my prokit new for 200 and 40 bones for
installation.. tax labor everything included.
and yeah..four wheels alignment after 2 weeks(allowing spring to settle)
just rotate your tires every 4 k and check it more often.
you prolly can drive 90% of the trends 3-40K

 

how much did the pro kit actually lower your car and do you have rims and if so what size are they? i'm planning on getting 17's. trying to figure how much of a drop i want cuz i don't want a big gap. i want to go with the pro kit but now sure if it will give me the drop i want and not have a big gap. sorry i'm knew to this game, what are agx and what do they do for your ride?

 

prokit=more performace than slamming looks
go with sportline for the "more show".
I have 17's with 40/205/17 rubber..
about 2 finger gap.
I cant make it out of 90% of parking here in SoCal with my
fat lip and coffee can exhaust if i lower it more than 2 inch..
talking about fat body 6th gen..haha

btw the drop is different from one gen to another..check online

 

I wish i got AGX...my friend has those...
KYb AGx to be exact..
they are adjustable shock, very very affordable,
good quality and yes high performance.
Koni Yellow is better but AGX is the bang for the bucks
do more search..you'll find alot more info.

 

Get the alignment and then decide from there. For the Accord -1 to +1 degrees of camber is in specs. But once you lower it, you wont be able to change it until you get a kit. If the camber is over -1.0 then i'd suggest getting one. Under, its still your call but camber wont be that big of an issue.

 

actually you can go up to -2 on camber without serious issue, it's your toe that you need to keep in check

 

i just got my pro-kit installed a week ago. like what im7 said, i didnt want the slammed look, and i live in socal where roads are horrible. Car looks noticeably lower. I love the ride quality even with stock shocks. i got it for 180 shipped + 70 install. Got install from the same shop as iam7head, but mufuckas ripped me off. ARGH.

 

toes eat up rubber many time more than camber...

 

say that ten times fast

 

hey where did you get your pro kit 170 shipped? i'm from so cal to where did you guys get it install so i don't go there by chance?

 

Sorry to heard "****" got rip off
He got it from the shop i go to..
i got mine 200 BUT with 40 bucks install
the shop prolly wont sell it alone..Not shipped..that sh_t is heavy!
