So, I am really confused. I want a budget lower, but the springs I have read about, skunk 2, GF210, etc all seem to have rubbing, rattling, issues.

Is there a fool proof lowering method that is @$200 or so that will not ruin the ride or cause noise.???

 

come on guys, I don't want to make a mistake on this. What is the best setup for lowering without issue?

I have 15 x 6.5 rims on 195/55 15 tires.

any thoughts

.

 

personally i have never had any problems with my tein s-techs. its the lowest drop in my opinion. it has the "angel drop look" no rubbing issues with my 16" and 15" rims. and very little with my 17" advans.

 

I am leaning toward the Tanaube springs. From what I have read, people are pretty pleased with them..

 

hey where did you get your teins at? I want to get some for my fit and im looking around. thanks

 

i love my tanabe gf210's. Are u running stock rims? the rubbing does not have to do with the springs, it's the OFFSET of the wheels. If ur riding on the stock wheels or close to them, u should not rub. I love the tanabe's b/c its a progressive spring that increases the stiffness only by 35% so it's still very comfortable and it looks aggressive.

 

That is exactly the info I was looking for. Sweet ride by the way. !!!

 

well i got my springs from aerocosmetixx.(aka hondafittuner.com)....i have a 1/2 a finger wheel gap in the front and 1 finger in the back running stock rims and tires. like i said previously i think, i do not like the boat look that the gf1's give...which the eibach sportlines give aswell.
im loving my tein s-tech. i bought mine for $150. hope you find your springs you like.
heres a picture of when i was rolling on some ls rims, and running 205/50/r15. the wheel gap increase by half a finger all around.so 1 in the front and 1 /2 finger gap in the back. since i went cheap and got the smaller tire....which i regret a lot.

 

that is lookin sweet!!!
