You might be able to get away with just buying smaller rims if you're running big already. I do recommend that you raise it though. It's bad for your shocks and the underside of your car. And do not remove the plastic in your tire well. Very bad for the egine.

And i have another question... the rear of my car .. with the Ground Controls.... its raised all the way to the top of the sleve and thats how it sits... lol do u think i need rear struts.. lol and yes i read Honda tuner, who states that the rear will raise 22mm with koni's i duno.. lol do u guys think i need them[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] my rear isnt bouncy in the slightest, and the struts appear to have no damage.. oil seems to still be inside.. i duno im confused with my sagging REAR.. i even took out all the stereo today when installing the ground controls....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

when my civic is out of the shop you will see a low *** civic i scrape when i hit those tiny sewer holes and i scrape over potholes [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] it was at a 4in drop i had no room to put my hand to measure the side [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] but now with the Octane full kit i had to raise it up an inch or 2 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

That's pretty low in the front. Mine isn't THAT low. If I made my ride that low, the stock struts would feel like they're not even there over bad roads. I'd get some new struts.

You know you have a low low car when you scrape going just about anywhere

i had my car slammed on gc's for about a week before i got tired of scraping everywhere, and my shocks blew too.... so now i raised it up to about a 1-2 finger gap now, still looks dropped though... if you keep it that low, you're gonna need some new shocks just like me...
