The Moderately Low (Not Slammed) and Functional Thread

[thejeans]

what year honda accord is that lip on the black mz3 that is sold i know they fit but what year i am thinking like 99

it was from a 97 accord

fitment isnt the best and your going to have to do some trimming/tweaking to get it to work

Would a pint cover it? I may just do rattle... And yes I'm pumped to try for a magnesium blue look on the stockers once the lime green wears off!

A pint will be more than enough to paint 4 wheels.

got booted in the slammed thread (jerkit)

skunk2 coilovers, more low coming soon.
(definitely a lot stiffer and handles the turns better.)
michelin snow tires 215/45/17

 

[Tungsten6]

^No more low! car is perfecto right there!

 

[jdowden1]

well i semi agree. the rear is definitely going down a little because of the extreme rakedness. and its not tucking tire, even with a lot of junk in da trunk. so i will mess with it a little more.

 

[justanothermp5]

yea, the rear needs a bit more low, but besides that...it looks pretty good
if you like taking turns, i wouldnt go any lower lol

 

[roy obanion]

more low coming soon.

you're missing the point of this thread...your car looks good regardless

 

[Wagonbacker9]

theres an entire thread devoted to lowering proteges. I believe in the MSP section.

Yes the rear need some lowering activity but the front it just perfect.

 

[Sleezer1533]

I like the raked look IMO

 

[Desync]

I'm trying to squeeze an inch off my coilovers, if I were to do so would adding more preload do the job? I ran out of thread in the front on the shock bodys

 

[THE Phen]

You're in the wrong thread to be asking that. See the slammed thread. All of us will tell you that you're too low if that's the case.


I don't think adjusting the pre-load will help you in any way what so ever... other than potentially breaking s***.

 

[justanothermp5]

i doubt thats going to get you any lower at all lol
your on skunk2's and your all the way down? that's hard to believe, they should go alot lower then that

and why does everybody say go to the slammed thread for questions like that?
You guys are obviously lowered (not much but still lower), and this is the functional thread so most of you should have coilovers
im sure you can answer his questions
