Hey guys I was wondering what are some good affordable(I cant afford $1500 coilovers ) shock and spring combos some of you guys have been running on the street, for the 4th gen prelude. Also, what tire size should I get for 16x7 rota slipstreams without worring about tire rub. Thanks a lot for your help

 

You have a few options to still get high quality stuff!

Neuspeed modified Koni Yellows with either H&R race springs or Ground Control coilovers. Shocks run about 525, h&r springs bout 140 and gc's about 300. The neuspeed koni's (vs off the shelf koni yellows) are revalved for higher spring rates (ie. race or coilover spring rates) for better dampening and spring control, have a 20mm shorter piston shaft to increase available shock travel for lower drops and have 5 adjustable spring perches instead of the normal 3 which allow for a +-.5" adjustment over stock perch in .25" incriments.

I have the neuspeed koni's and h&r race combination on my car and they're awesome. The shocks are almost always set on full stiff and the ride is great and they handle very well. H&R race front and rear springrates are 400/345. The extra ~$40 or so for the neuspeed upgrades are worth the money for larger drops and/or higher springrates.

Closest 16" tire size to stock are 205/50/16 or 215/45/16's. I suggest falken azenis sports in the 215/45 size.

 

cool man, thanks for the help
how low is ur car??

 

I have H&R Sport springs and KYB AGX shocks. Its a great ride and a LOT of people will recommend it. I got the springs on ebay for 150 and shocks on ebay for 300. Great deal for a great ride I have 215/45-16 and theres NO tire rub at all.

 

i already have the Tein S-tech springs...would i just be able to buy the neuspeed modified koni yellows and install the springs on there.?
