not if the outer diameter for the tire isn't changed from stock.

and :thumbdn: on the front end/body kit. imo, it won't look very good. that's a round kit, our cars have a boxy/square design. they always end up looking bad.

Funny. I never think of the parts money as investment. They definitely don't make my car worth more in the market place. If anything, people becoming less interested after seeing the aftermarket performance add-ons.

yeah most of the stuff is only for you to enjoy....i love my suspension cuz not every honda accord can have it.

i look at some parts as a partial investment, knowing that i can recover some of their value after i've gotten all the fun i want out of them :D

which is why you save the stock stuff to put back on when it's time to sell. the parts don't hold much value on the car, but off, they're worth a lot more.

Actually if the wheels are heavier it will definetly affect your gas mileage. It's going to take more torque to accelerate. Just like lightening the flywheel helps with whp heavier wheels have the opposite affect.

Most people go 1.5" drop, but some people do 2" to 2.5". You have to remember that 2" or lower, or maybe even 2", your camber will need to be corrected with Prelude adjustable upper control arms for the front. They also have some for the rears, but not sure where, they aren't from a Lude tho.

we used to cut our springs back in the day to lower our car's but that was when I had a Lowrider and before I had my hydraulics installed, but as for performance I wouldnt recommend it, I had my Jetta lowered that way when I got it and the ride and handling sucked balls big time I finally got some H&R's for it and was much happier.
My opinion save up and do it right the first time you wont regret it

MessyHonda
06-22-2007, 12:26 AM
yeah time for a 1.5 inch drop
plus tokicos can kinda handle it....i dont get bounce in the front.
