The lower the better

I agree, go down till it drags and then go up a 1/4 inch.

ya sure if you wanna have problems driving your car everywhere you go bottoming out on everything not too mention putting a ****load of stress on all other suspension components from being stupidly low.

id say around 2 inches maybe 1.8 inches is good enough i personally like an even 2 inch drop no more thatn that

6 inches! y0

serious 2 is nice...

1.5 or 1.75 in the front and 1.75 or 2 inches in the back would look alright,

Just play around with it! You got coilovers for a reason right?

I'd slam it all the way and take a picture for kicks. Then I'd raise it 1/2 nich then 1/4 inch increments until i found what I liked.

we're civic drivers, so we're all pretty low as it is.

depends on how you want the car to turn, if you go past 2.25 you can forget about great handling, obviously you risk smashing your oilpan into somthing, and that aint fun. 2 inch max i say.

thanks alot guys I think I'm going to try 1.8 in the front and 2 in the back??? what about that??

imported_GoldBadge

1 in the front, 3 in the back!

it really all depends on what size wheels and tires you have, because if you are rolling 17's, you cant go too much or it will rub and/or tuck, but if you are hardcore rollin on some 15's you can probably afford a little more drop before you run into problems

slam it to the ground .... take pics...

then slowly move it up to test waters
