Default Lowering a 2000 accord sedan with new coil springs

Hello,

I was wondering how much lowering you can do before you need to get a new camber kit... .75", 1", etc.? I don't want to eat through tires, so I know I should probably just go ahead and get them, but I was curious. Also, if anyone has recommendations on good coil spring kits that don't cost an arm and a leg (<$300) please let me know. Same goes for a camber kit. I have a 2000 accord sedan 4 cyl. Thank you!

traditionally if you keep the drop under 2 inches your camber should be ok. it is always a good idea to get the camber kit though just incase. also if you go for a coilover setup rather than a standard coil you will have the adjustability to set the height for no camber. or just cylinder it and change it at the hit of a switch....

I would recomend these, not an extreme drop, but noticeable drop though!
1. Eibach Sportline
2. Neuspeed Sport
3. H&R Sport

you will however need a camber kit for any of these, as with just about any lowering spring(whenever you lower a car, the camber gets thrown off), i had a sprint camber kit on my teggy which had H&R Race and it was fine...i would recomend sprint if your on a budget..
