215-40 would be fine but 225 might be a lil too wide..225/40 is kinda too thick anyways.. might want to rethink it...

well the person im buying them from already has 225/40's on them so its too late to rethink.
so you think they would rub or no?
also i have my eye on H&R springs how much of a drop are those and would they work?

H&Rs look ugly on a sedan... only ones i recommend are neuspeed sports and maybe goldlines but they're a similar drop anyways... you should be fine with 225-40-18 on neuspeed sports but there is a slight possibility of rubbing. you'll ight have a problem with getting a camber within spec as well...

H&R and eibach both only make one set of springs for both coupe and sedan. neuspeed and goldline make different springs for coupe and sedans.. this is the way it should be, why because the sedan is obviously much heavier in the rear then the coupe. not exactly sure why h&r and eibach dont make different springs but i'm guessing its cause there probably isnt enough sedan owners that want to lower their cars.. but ya since the drop looks even on a coupe, those same springs used on a sedan will cause the rear to sit lower, thus making an ugly look. well some people like that look where you have 2 finger gap in the front and none in the rear.. if you like it, then h&r would be fine but majority of people dont so thats why i dont really recommend it. how cheap is it anyways?

Neuspeed Sports are for me... I have 17"s so it doesn't look so dropped. I think it'll be perfect for your car w/ 18"s. Ride is nice, no complaints. I was wonderin gif 225 will fit our cars too, some say they'll be a little too wide.... I'd like to see, so keep us updated. Good luck...

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] I just installed eibach prokit in my sedan and i was concerned that my rear would be lower than my front but in truth the rear is like 3 fingers and the front is 2 fingers i wish the rear was even with the front but it looks good any ways way better than stock. I also installed Koni yellows maybe that had something to do with my results

who knows.. it might be the konis.. n if you just got them installed.. wait a few days.. i think prokit on sedan might be fine cause i've heard the front with prokit is just the same as sportlines, its just the rear thats much higher...

with the neuspeed sports do you need a rear camber kit or not? Also how low will it be on the coupe. I have 205/50/16, will it fit?

i just had my neuspeed sports put on my sedan today, but they didn't have the rear camber kit in stock. now i have to wait a LO-ONG time till i can drive my car. i noticed a knock when i was driving home too. i've heard of others having that problem. but my car looks great so i can't complain too much!

knock when you turn the wheel? they probably didnt install the top perch correctly.. it doesnt harm your car tho but you did pay for install(i'm guessing) so if it annoys you, take it back. as for the camber kit. how much are you paying? hondawerx has both front and rear for 138 shipped or something like that.
