lowering my car - need recommendations

Hello all, it has been some time since I have checked out this site. Busy with many things. Just got married and bought a house. Now that things are settling down now, I am back to working on my "first" wife. Anyways, I was wondering if any one could recommend a good height for lowering a Civic sedan. I never done something like this and I am not sure how low I should lower it. I want to have it as low as possible but not having problems going over bumps. My company parking lot has at least a dozen. Any suggestions are appreciate. Thanks.

well for it to still be decent..i would say 1.5 drop would be just fine..nice look and still have enuogh ground clearance..but keep in mind ...for the sedans from what i have been hearing...neuspeed is the best to get if you are going with springs because the rear does not sag..unlike the others....so give that a try...

Seems that 1.5 inch is popular. My brother told me to go with 2 inch drop. I guess I will have to see his car dropped first. He is definitely dropping 2 inches. I think I might take your advice. 1.5 inch. I will take a look at my bro's car and then make the final decision. Thanks for the info.

1028civic, I just moved up to Unionville. I am near 1st Markham Place. Maybe we can meet sometime. Message me or something.
