Default my plans for lowering and suggestions

im planning to lower my accord in a few months after i save up money ;D

right now i plan to get eibach prokits and use them on my stock struts

if i can find a seller on ebay who is willing to let me pick it up and not pay shipping then i would only have to spend like 170 on that


or i can get them at http://www.performancecenter.c...93894 performance center or some place like discount tires or somehting for around 225

umm i definately plan to get an alignment , how much does that cost? but im not sure about camber kit cus some people tel me that its only needed for really low drops but then some people say that i wiil still get a little tire wear in the long run

any suggestions?


anybody ever ride on prokits with stock struts? is it comfortable ? and is the handling much better ?


o and kinda dumb question but : am i doing the right thing (for lowering) by getting springs first? cus i dont have too much $$ and i could either start with springs or shocks

prokit is an excellent choice, and are highly rated by anyone who uses them....since the drop is so slight, ull be ok on ur stock shocks for a while, but u will eventually want to get some new shocks that are either stiffer or have adj. damper settings....

as far as the camber kit, it wouldnt hurt at all, but if u dont have the money, and ur not running on really soft ("high performance") tires you should be fine
