can you see what the pic suggest? is it the rear strut?? or spring? cant tell it because i'm new to suspension things.

 

You must be new. All you posted was a picture of a crusty wheel.

 

yup but dont have money right for wheel. right now focusing to get a new two tires for front end, i wonder if that pic i posted here because you see quater fender is almost soo closer to tires

 

What are you trying to say??


The car is clearly lowered. Raise it, and that problem will go away.

no. my mom, my cousin, and sister was sitting in my car and water bottles packs of 24, foods, look at what happen. and it isnt lowered. my car's completely stock. and i recall mechanic said strut are gonna bad about year. not sure. so it definiely not lowered.

 

so you have roughly 200-400 pounds in your car and you're wondering why it's low? your shocks are probably dead now. congrats.

 

The rear springs are about 80lbs/in. That means it takes 80 to compress the springs one inch.
You are overloading that poor car! Shocks are likely blown as well.

 

then i get a new springs?

 

what is the combined weight of your mom and sister exactly ???

 

Oooch, cheeky!

Just because his car sits low when it's overloaded, doesn't mean the dampers are blown. I mean looking at the state of the wheel and arch would certainly suggest that the car probably hasn't had new dampers in a good few years, but that's a different matter...

 

um i would say they're overweights you know.. and my couisn is same,too i'm just one featherweight in my family

 

right. last year this car was given to me for free from my best friend since she know i don't have a car so i got this civic. i just wanted to learn how to fix/maintenance for my car in good conditions. I'm just asking in a advice for what to do.

 

There is noithing wrong with the car, you had too much weight in it. It's as simple as that.

 

ok what if i moved out and my stuffs in my trunks and rear seats? just a example.

 

The rear spring rate on a civic is sooo soft. With large cargo in the back, it compresses them. Get that cargo out and you should be fine.

 

Dude, you really need to proof read these posts... I don't understand what you are trying to say.

 

ok. it was just a question. i like to make sure 100 percent before i do anything.

 

Do you regularly drive around with the car that loaded? If not, I wouldn't worry about it.

 

Customers cars are like this alot in Vallejo. I help people with their groceries to their car and I always see 100s of pounds of random junk in their cars with the rear suspension always sagging. Lol.

 

that was the first time, and i dont drive usually when it was loads.. i just like to drive with empty loads
