Default SLAMMED... Suspension Setups.

Heyyy... i know theres a grip of slammed threads, but i'm curious to see what suspension setups everyone is running, and what kind of ride quality/performance/stiff/bouncyness everyone is getting. after looking around I didnt really find anything like this, and i'm really curious to see what some of you guys that are scraping frame on road reflectors and running. anyway i'll start it out, heres mine. not a honda but whatev's.

Megan coilovers:
rears are maxed.

I have TEIN HRs on my EG, front goes low, at the back when wound all the way down, the top of the tyres are in line with the fenders i.e not as low as how I want it...

Ride is pretty crap. Got my bump stops cut in half already.

Bounce, bounce, bounce...

Not the suspension to get for dumpage

thanks man, wheels are 18x9 +7 up front and 18x10 +5 rear. rear fenders are pulled about 10-15mm.

I did check it out, atleast 200 pages of it lol, i saw koni & gc's mentioned a few times, I was just curious to see what else was out there, but it seems thats pretty much the norm for all the slammed guys? I just picked up an EK for daily so I was interested in seeing what my options were, koni's rock but are a little on the expensive side for me to drop on a daily.

so anyone who breaks the koni/gc mold, post em up
