Forget about stock shocks. Coilovers + stock shocks = undriveable car !!!

PM Loudsubz. He is the best of the best in suspension installations. He charges very little compare to the shops. Very nice guy too.

please dont go lower than 2 inches.... And if u plann on going lower than 1.5" new shocks are mandatory!!! please dont waste you time and money slamming on stock shocks, it gives us civic owners a bad name

i'm driving civic h/b 94. anyway, so i can't use my stock shocks if i wanna go low not more than 1.5"? my shocks r still ok so i prefer to keep my shocks and install coilovers. i'm trying to go low with less money to spend, need ur knowledge here pepol and i thank u for ur suggestions and ideas. ok last ???, is 210-215/45-60/17 rims would fit in my car and which place is the best to look for rims? thanx guys....

205/40/17 are the size tires u want and make sure the offset of the rims are correct otherwise ur gonna rub...and please just get lowering springs, may cost a bit more now but u will thank yourself later

imported_TO23

210 doesnt exist 205 or 215 if your are going to do it do it properly from the start or you will have problems rubber isnt cheap for 17 give it 6 months and your stock shocks are going to bottom out with just coil overs.
