Re: slamming a 7thgen
Not to the ground, but so low it makes it EXTREMELY hard to be a DD where I live.


Since this was taken, the rear wiper has been shaved.

Pretty low considering if you notice where I live in the sticks.
Edit-
Actually, if I remember right i'm only 4'' off the ground.
Anyways, to give you an idea of how much it sometimes sucks, at school when I was in auto shop, I wasnt even able to drive my car on the lift for an oil change.
And I had to drive it on boards to be able to fit a jack under it.

Re: slamming a 7thgen

Re: slamming a 7thgen
ya i dont understand why you would go that low, i barely get around fine with 1 inch drop going at extreme angles lol
Re: slamming a 7thgen
^^ i measured mine vs a stock civic and its even 4 inch drop. the roads in reno must be REALLY shitty cuz the roads in las vegas are very bad. i can get around fine. you just gotta know the roads.
to the op... i dont think you will ever get a 7th gen that low 'safely' without sacrificing comfort. thats a completely different story. a 6th gen slammed and a 7th gen slammed. 7th gens cant compete. the suspension setups are completely different.

Re: slamming a 7thgen
lol yeah that was my point, you shouldnt have to delete possible roads because the car is too low. and yeah alot of our freeway are made of stones no joke.

Re: slamming a 7thgen
im not that low and i already have to delete possible roads and constantly think about which lane on the freeway will be the least bumpiest and less likely of cracking my front lip...

Re: slamming a 7thgen
careful not to angle your car too much. I was leaving this moderately steep driveway and i angled way too much and my rear wheel went over a curb and blew the bushing and likely broke the seal around my coilover too...
