I am gonna get my car lowered 2morrow with KGMM springs, now i think how low should i go 1.5" or 2"?? i know 1.5" i wouldn't have any problem with speed bump, but my friend suggest 2" since it will look better. Wat do u guys think??

2" is fine. I got H&R Race springs, and I'm dropped lower than you.

 

can i c a b4 and after lowered picture??

 

whether you have problems with speed bump all depends on how you drive. if you drive carefully and even at an angle, i really don't see how a mild 2" drop can affect anything. i have over 3" drop on my gs4, with body kits, and less than 1 finger gap, and i have no problem going over any bumps or even driveways

 

can i c a b4 and after lowered picture??

I don't go any stock pics, but the lowered pics you can see here:

it seems that alot of people have had camber issues with a 2 inch-plus drop

Which is why a rear camber kit is necessary if anybody drops to 2 inches or lower.

 

i got a the kgmm super sport spring install.... it is ok... not too low....

 

lowering 1.5" will wear out ur tires unevenly. i had h&r sports on stock tires and rims and they looked like this:

now i have GC coilovers with less than 1 finger gap and my new tires have been wearing out alot more. so i finally got my camber kit installed and will take the car to get aligned tomorrow. i guestimated on it for now so i could set my ride height and i will have about 2 - 2.5 finger gap. im tired of always rubbing and/or bottoming out. now, i'll just drop it when i go to shows....

i just oredered some tokico shocks, i uneven wear would go away after i have those installed.

 

of course, adding tokicos doesnt change your height. only going back to the original height will keep tires from wearing out like mine did.

btw, i just installed tokico illuminas...and have them set to 5 in front, 4 in rear. w/the GC this setting seems to be the best for me!

pix coming later tonight

 

huh!?
i thought it will stay at the current height??

 

i know...but didnt you just post that you got kgmm springs installed? how much did it lower the car? im not familiar with them but like i explained earlier...any drop will eat up your tires.

 

I dropped 1.5"

 

then you will still need a camber kit. read my previous post that you quoted on...and learn from it...:bash:

 

hey, right now you can get spc performance camber kit on ebay for $260 shipped! well, your in canada, so it may be more for shipping...just do a search for spc acura

 

a friend of mine said tokico works bad with lowering spring, and it doesn't have warranty with it. is it true systek??

Also, not that you would probably be bothered because of it, but you may want to check your local laws about the legal amount of drop allowed. Here in MA, any car lowered over 2" is illegal and can get you a ticket and towed on the spot.

 

currently, i have mine lowered about 1.75 front and rear. so i dont worry about it. i may put the h&r sports back on...still trying to decide. guess it depends how the tokicos work w/my GCs.

not true. tokicos come w/limited warranty. there are limitations to it, but seems like a solid deal. especially useful if you have a tokico dealer nearby who would simply swap the defective one out w/one from his stock, even though you bought urs online.
