How much should I lower my car?
I'm looking for some opinions on how low i should lower my civic. I don't want my car to bottom out on speed bumps. I was kind of thinkin about a 1 to 1 1/2" drop. What do you all think?

666, your car looks slick! Yeah i think i'm gonna go for a 1.5 drop. Have you had any problems with it? Do you have to angle the speed bumps? The pic looks like your car has no probs going over speed bumps.

I recommend Eibach sportlines, 1.8 all around. And i have the eibach camber kit. yes anything below 1.5 you will need a camber kit for sure.

i got goldlines, 1.75 drop, more like 1.5 front 1.75 in the rear, nice in the rear, wish the front was dropped more. i never scrap, still have stock struts and never bottom out, have an eibach front and rear camber kit, front isnt neccessary, in my case anyway, but the rear was.
do you have aftermarket wheels??? Cause he doesn't thats why theres minimal wheel gap.....Im going to go 45 tires whever i change them out...lil less wheelgap
