Need advice for my 04 Civic
Need advice for my 04 Civic
I recently purchased a new 04 Civic LX. I just put some Tenzo 17" wheels on with 215/45/17 Falken tires. After a lot of debate, I decided that I do not want to lower the car. I like the way it rides and I do not want to worry about the shocks/struts down the road.
I do want to improve the handling of the car with out changing the springs. Is there anything I can do to stiffen up the supsension? I have no plans on Auto-X the car, nor doing anything crazy, but I want to be able to have fun in the twisties. I am thinking about getting a strut brace, but how about anti-roll bars with the stock suspension?
Thanks in advance, Kent.

And you might want to look in to a set of polyurethane bushings for the lower control arms. They will make the car a bit more responsive to your control imputs with minimal ride quality loss.
If you have the $$$$ pick up the complete set of Progress anti-Roll bars (Front and back). that is if you dont get the RSX bar.
Other then that there are chassis reinforcements you could get....
