need advice on neuspeed sport with stock shocks

hi, new member here
could anyone give me an advice on this:
i'm planning on purhcasing neuspeed sport (1.75/1.5-f/r) for my 4-door civic. at this drop and with only stock wheels is it necessary for me to also modify my stock shoks? or can it do with stocks? - 'cuz some say it's okay as long as i don't go beyond 1.75 but others say that the limit is 1.5..??

thanx [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

you could install it with stock shocks with no other modifications.
BUT it wont ride as nice and the stock shocks might blow faster..
i'm on neuspeed sports as well and after a year i think my shocks are starting to blow.

you should be aiiigght. As stated above, you shocks may go a lil faster and the ride is gonna be a lil crappier, but you should be good to go for the most part. I've had mine for a few months now and my shocks seem to be holding up.

I would suggest it.
The kit will set the tires to the proper angle.
When you lower a car, the car butterflys like this: //---- \\
The kit will set the tire back upright: ll----ll
Do you need the kit? NO
Do you want your tire the wear unevenly? Probibly not
Bottom the money you spend now on the kit will save you money on buying new tires later.
Well, That my two cents on that.
Best of luck!
Later.
