    -civiclowered-jpg

    After 3 years, I have lowered my Civic. It is lowered on Skunk 2 springs. Noting to special, but I have been nagged by tons of people about when am I going to lower my car. I didn't wash it before I took the picture. This is also a picture without my spoiler on it. I still need to install my CTR lip and my fog lights, but I am proud of myself


    This was right after I lowered it so it didn't completely "set" yet. It actually is a bit lower in the back then what this picture reflects

    Thanks and sorry for not responding right away sti_cham.. But yes 2.5 all the way is what the skunk 2's are rated. I haven't actually "measured" since I lowered it. It sits lower then what this picture shows. As EL42 and Its Black said, it looks better in person.

    Thanks for all the comments guys. Yes it is just another Civic, but I love my car and it fits me just well. One day though I'm going to have me an EVO I graffiti'd on the spoiler. I am going to redo it though, I started get sick of doing it and just did whatever to finish it.

    EJ_Allmota - Most def. I am still in shock. I even had a nightmare about it on Sunday. I really hope your friend Widdy is recovering okay. I have been reading the updates. Your car is sexxxyy! Thanks.

    Oh hey Tiff....have you got an alignment since you lowered it? Better do that or your tires will be trashed in no time.

    No I haven't, but I plan to. So far no camber. I've been watching it, but I do plan to get an alignment ASAP.

    I plan on getting the skunk lowering springs for my civic as well.


    PS, I was wondering, once I get those springs on my car, should I install the camber or just get an alignment? I'm not sure if doing an alignment after would help the camber issue, but i'm no expert on " lowering " cars.

    Unless the camber is WAY off its not what kills tires. Its the toe being off and you cant really see that.

    You cant adjust the camber on your car unless you get a camber kit. So if you are worried about wear or want your camber straightened out...yes you should get a camber kit.

    your car looks like my brothers car. you need some wheels asap. i have some 17" motegi dp12s with new new kumhos on them if your interested. they are missing 2 caps but you can order them from ebay if you really wanted them. they are like 35$ each.....i only want like 250$ for the wheels with the new tires. (just the tires cost that LOL) lmk girl they would look hot painted up a different color. pink/purple whatever....they have the polished lip so it will look awsome.


    LOL skip the alignment for now and get some wheels worth aligning....
