03 Civic EX Coupe Lifting Info
Have been reading quite a bit about the things one needs to lower their civic yet I want to lift mine by 3-4 inches as I live in Maine and not all roads are flat or tar. I am also new to the Honda world though I've always wanted one.
I am looking for any info that can keep my budget low yet do the job correctly and keep a nice smooth ride as it has now.
Thank you,
Kristoco

Buy a truck.
You are going to need to do custom suspension work to raise it that high. A set of coilovers can actually allow you to raise the car a bit but not 3-4 inches. Maybe 1-1.5. You have McPherson struts in the front and struts in the rear so you will need a shock with a long piston rod or sleeves that allow you to raise the whole assembly up.

Re: 03 Civic EX Coupe Lifting Info
putting bigger tires on would be your only option for
lifting the car without suspension mods. but you won't get much higher before the tires start to rub.
