hey guys

i was just wondering how much i could lower my 03 accord and not run into major problems with speed bumps, curbing, etc. i'm running my stock rims and oem size potenza g009's. any input would be great.

thanks

Eibach Sportline are gonna be your best bet in my opinion. Just slow down for the bumps.

yeah, i was considering either the eibach sportlines or the tien s tech springs. i just wasn't sure if lowering it 2 inches in the front was a smart move for a daily driver.

My S is 3.25 inchs and I have no problems.

3.25 from the ground on a level surface. It's only dropped an inch, but the S sits lower than the accord by a lot from the factory. Tein is a very good company, if they are both reasonably priced and same drop my vote is for Tein.

i will put in a second vote for Tein and to add extra control and adjustment the the Koni or KYB AGR struts the smooth the ride
