Im debating whether to lower my car or not. What can I expect in my ride confort if I do lower it? What's the best springs out there that will drop my car about 1 inch with my stock shocks?

Currently my front passenger side wheel is having negative camber.....is this common on a 98 integra gsr? I have an aftermarket 17in rims running 205/40/17.

 

go buy yourself a set of eibach sportline springs. OR the eibach pro-kit too, just check them both out and see which one you like more. The ride will be a little more stiff, and im not sure what else to say, once the stock shocks go to crap, the ride will get worse. but lower it anyways. lowerering cars

Pro kit is good but I prefer the sportlines. Have both and the sportlines is only a 1/2 difference all around compared to the prokit. Also besides what springs you get they are not designed for stock shocks. You can use them but expect them to go out most likely within a yr.

 

get some coilovers d00d, your car is a 4x4. may i also suggest some koni yellow shocks. If you have the money go for JIC's or motons...but for normal ppl get some skunk2's and koni yellows...low and stiff

 

if youre all into the "racing" scene, then yea go for it, lower your car. but if u want that "stalky height" look, then dont lower it.

as for expectations: u can expect it to b lower first of all. u can also expect better cornering. if you DROP IT drop it, then u might expect to b more cautious when youre around speedbumps//potholes//etc....

as for which application to get...mmm...u gotta search around and see which one u can afford and stuff like that. they have all sorts of drop heights applications...theres TEIN,Skunk2, i mean i can go on for a long time just listing the companies that make springs//coilovers....just search around man...

HTHs man. GL with your susp. setup!!

 

i have a 96 gsr with stock suspension i would vote dont lower it i dont ever plan on lowering mine.

 

Save your money and invest in a nice coilover setup so then you can adjust the height.

If you really lower your car be sure to pick up a front and rear camber kit and then take your car in for alignment otherwise you will get a lot of inner tire wear.

 

ur on 17s rollin around on stock suspension???? u must have maddd wheel gap.. haha

i lowered mine with eibach prokits (running on stock shocks) and the ride is pretty good... a LIL stiffer than stock.. i only wish the front was dropped a little more (prokits lower 1.3" all around)
