i want the adjustability but I'd also like to increase the longevity of the strut. The stock strut isnt designed for such a high spring rate, so a stiffer aftermarket strut will probably last longer than that stockers.

Do you know what the spring rates are on the RM springs?

I e-mailed them and they responded back that they'd get back to me in the morning.

What are the specs on your wheels? Size and offset? I have a set of Rota P1's in 18*8 +48. I really like the look of those springs. Just as long as they are not too stiff. I can go with some adjustable shocks down the road like you.

I believe that my wheels have the same exact dimens as yours do, so the springs should go fine with that combo.

the ride is stiff, but not too uncomfortable. I make a point to avoid large bumps and holes, but it happens eventually and the ride quality has not been affected. The difference between this and a civic is that this car is designed for a lower stance and more agressive spring rates. I personally would like a stiffer ride with the option of adjustability, that doesnt mean that its necessary

yeah everyone seems to go for the tint. my photoshop skills arent that good, someone wanna hook me up and put maybe like a 35% tint on? photoshop is a lot cheaper way to find out if i like it or not since the original quote i got for tint was $250

Someone say photoshop? 35% tint...

verry nice, thanks! I got a bonus at work that is half going to car, half going to paying off my new computer. I think i may go a little darker, 20% probably.

 

[GhostMercury]

20 or 25 is what i will be going with 20 can sometimes be to dark and 30 to light, so i figured why not take the middle!

not a big fan of black on black rims. it kinda looks like your back weels are a little bit of negative camber. should get a camber kit
