Re: slamming a 7thgen
why on earth would you want it that low with no adjustability? esp, if it's a DD??

Re: slamming a 7thgen
^^ i measured mine vs a stock civic and its even 4 inch drop. the roads in reno must be REALLY shitty cuz the roads in las vegas are very bad. i can get around fine. you just gotta know the roads.

to the op... i dont think you will ever get a 7th gen that low 'safely' without sacrificing comfort. thats a completely different story. a 6th gen slammed and a 7th gen slammed. 7th gens cant compete. the suspension setups are completely different.

Re: slamming a 7thgen
lol yeah that was my point, you shouldnt have to delete possible roads because the car is too low. and yeah alot of our freeway are made of stones no joke.

im not that low and i already have to delete possible roads and constantly think about which lane on the freeway will be the least bumpiest and less likely of cracking my front lip...

Re: slamming a 7thgen
careful not to angle your car too much. I was leaving this moderately steep driveway and i angled way too much and my rear wheel went over a curb and blew the bushing and likely broke the seal around my coilover too...
